JAMES CONRAD

I still remember Jim and his contributions to the USS PITTSBURGH SSN720 during our new construction efforts at Electric Boat in Groton CT.

Though unseen and unheard - always next to me.

Margaret and David, and all the family:
Lucille and I were shocked to hear of Jim's passing. We thought he would be with us forever, but it reminds us we are all getting older. Our deepest sympathy for you all. Jim will be sorely missed by many in and around Pittsburgh. We worked together in the AIChE Pittsburgh Section for over thirty years, and, partly because of Jim's unique efforts, I know we made a difference to our profession and the young students and engineers we worked with. I am grateful for the many fond memories with Jim and Margaret.

Conrad Family - I never had the chance to meet Jim personally but he sounds like a wonderful person. My thoughts and prayers are with during this difficult time. I'm so sorry for your loss.

Jamie and family,
Deep condolences on the loss of your father. Prayers are with you all.

Conrad family--

I am so very sorry to hear of your loss. Please know my prayers are with you all. Best,
Jenny (Clouse) Gardiner

Conrad family--
SO sorry to hear of your loss. Please know I'm thinking of you all and sending prayers your way. Best,
Jenny (Clouse) Gardiner

Dear Jim, Phil, David, and family - So sorry to hear about your father's passing. I have many fond memories of our shared boyhood adventures - "flying" with your dad in the backseat of the family station wagon on the way to Twin Echo and building "science projects" whenever cub scout meetings were held at your house. I'm sure that he will live forever in the hearts of all who knew him.
Bill Combs, EHS "76"

I am so sorry for your lose. He seems to have lead a full life. Take care, Richard Lithgow

Jim - so sorry for your loss. I didn't know your dad but you sure look like him....thinking of you and your family.

Dear Jim, Phil, David, and Mrs. Conrad - I am so sorry to hear about the loss of Mr. Conrad. My brother Doug sent me the notice. I want you to know that my prayers and thoughts are with you and your family at this time of sorrow and loss. But, as your lovely obituary states, it is the wonderful memories of one's loved ones that is so important and remain with us so long after they are gone. Regards, Heather

Just found out about your loss: sorry to hear about your dad's passing. Its never easy at any time. Jim, Philip and David, all my best. Hope to make the Memorial in June.

I remember Jim as we were building USS Pittsburgh SSN 720 in Groton. He loved the entire process, and was willing to do anything to help. Margaret was one of the sweetest people in all of Pittsburgh. Ray Setser Capt USN(Ret), Commissioning Commanding Officer, USS Pittsburgh SSN 720.

I did not know Mr. Conrad but I read obituaries habitually and found his to be extraordinary. I wonder the author the closing quote.

I new and worked with Jim in various Aero Club of Pittsburgh activities. He was a pleasure to work with and always knew what he was talking about. My condolences to Margaret and the boys.

My condolences to Jim's family on his passing. I remember many good times with Jim working together at the Aero Club of Pittsburgh. James R. Davidson

I didn't know Mr. Conrad, but I read his obituary anyhow because I was drawn in by the impishness of the photograph, and hoped that it wasn't the picture of a dead child.

I am certain that he wrote this obituary himself, and all I can say is that I wish I had known him. His modesty and his sense of humor speak for themselves.

My sincere condolences on his loss.
