Another hero gone - but like so many before - never forgotten. Requisat in Pace

Ad majorem dei gloriam.

Sad news indeed. Condolences to his family and may his eternal patrol be fruitful.

Thanks unruhly for taking care of a shipmate in his last days.

So long Dusty see you when we get there ... forever starts when ye believe not when you die.

I'm Irish so I'll go have a beer ... R.I.P.

Calm seas and a following wind.

And to you unruhly, you are truely a kind person, a giant amongst men and for this I salute you :up:

RIP, Dusty.

Ubruhly, you are an example to our community. :up:

Wow sorry to hear about this, my sympathies to the family though, it is nice to see the caring here at subsim.

Was he a member of the Submariner's Association in the UK?If not ,could anybody let me have a little more biographical information on him so I can post an obituary on The Submariners Association website.Many of his former shipmates may be unaware of his passing.


RESURGAM

Run silent, run deep. RIP Dusty

Take her down..........Take her deep..........God rest our eternal sleep............

Thank you
 

Thank you to everyone for your heartfelt condolences.

One last thing of note...
It was Tony's request to have his ashes delivered to the depths via a torpedo tube launch. The vessel to carry his ashes??? His hand made model submarine which was well over 6 feet long with working masts and periscope. One of many that he made over the years.

This guy lived, breathed, and quite litterally died submarines! I was very lucky to share a part of his remarkable life.

Regards to all,

I remember Tony here on SubSim, very nice fella. Being gone when this happened I missed the announcement of his passing on..

So, on the 2nd anniversary of Tony's passing, here's a salute to a real submariner. You may be gone Tony but you are not forgotten. RIP, dive deep, and may God keep you safe in his hands for eternity. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v6...igpic336_1.gif
