I worked with Seth for many years at Steamtown NHS in Scranton PA. I always enjoyed our time together, either working as his conductor, or besides him in the cab of a steam locomotive. He took a few pictures of me at the throttle of CP2317 at Steamtown that I now treasure. Seth had steam railroading in his blood.
Rest in peace my friend.

Memories of Seth date from the 1940s at the American Yacht Club. He was an especially fine friend to my brother, Phil, a fellow 110 class sailor in the 1950s and, like Seth, a member of the DKE fraternity at college. How he was treasured and loved by the crew of Albie and Jane Boardman's Madrigal. How smart he was and funny and kind. Oh, he was simply special.
