reunion

My wife and I were fortunate enough to be able to attend the St. Louis reunion, our first. For those of you who have not and are considering attending one in the future, I strongly urge you to "make preparations to get under way". Many of us were a from a crew of 'salty old sailors",but this was nothing but a CLASS ACT. I say this from a personal perspective as wife and I received news of family emergency on Friday evening and made plans to leave the next morning. Terry George offered to fly us home at the associations expense(we drove there)and insure our vehicle would be taken care of. One of the last things he said to me was,"you are one of us now". Although I declined his offer to fly, his gesture and sentiment were 'above and beyond". Truly a 'CLASS ACT'.
