It's hard to put into words how much you are missed. You were always the one Navy Officer who took my call ready to go wherever I needed you. Thank you so much for your service to ONI and to our country. Thank you for being my friend. I will miss your smile, wit and laughter.
My condolences to all who knew and loved you. Wanda Ward
