Yup, they accept Visa etc and it goes to the American Heart Association through the "Dave "LeoVampire" Bunnell Memorial" fund. Excellent! (we did the same thing for my Dad)

Perfect. Then that is where I am going.

Thanks!

Please do us a favor and take a hi-res picture and post it so we can really see it.

I reviewed all the posts of condolences on this Forum and I thought someone might like to let Francisco and Dave's family/friends know about the worldwide nature of his 'impact'...This list is only of the locations of those members who have posted and have included their home countries/states with their avatars.

It speaks well of a man when so many who never met him miss him so much when he's gone.

I'll bet Dave has made the view in heaven a little brighter...

Sincere Condolences SS on your loss

Here in england it's been drizzling (light rain) cold n frosty at times, But a few mornings ago as i looked out of the window and i saw a most beautiful sunrise with reds/oranges/yellows and just shades of every vibrant colour you could imagine, My fiancee was up as well and i said look at this gorgeous morning (somewhat unexpected this time of year with the weather) as she looked she said how beautiful the colours were and then said it's just like on your sub game (she does usually call it a sim not a game so i left it at that) but i said yeah it sure does, She then said it's so sad that nice guy died (a nice guy indeed) , In reply i said yes for sure but then i said whenever we watch a sunset or sunrise we can think of him as i think i always shall

You see for my fiancee and myself sunsets and sunrises mean a great deal to us, She used to come n stay with me every other weekend when i worked away, One of our loves was to watch a sunset and a sunrise, Hence i or rather we loved the ongoing work dave and others put in to row etc

She indulges me with my pc and other hobbies but she really looks out for the dawn or sunsetting whenever i am in sh4 and will always say "it looks so real"

In short the sunrise/sets mean more than one thing to me now

Well donating to the heart foundation asap

Had to comeback and edit as i got a bit choked up writing this

Ciao

I think the ships we all know and love prove that "Just because you cant see it, doesnt mean its not there".

*waves to Leovampire* Be sure to give us fair seas, friend.

I had the same problem although reselecting my country allowed me to choose out of Australian states. It's a bit buggy but if you keep trying it should work.

Best wishes to his family and all who miss him.
*bows deep*

I remember there is a memorial when leaving the harbour of Kiel on the right side of the Kieler Foerde (not the channel to the north sea!).
I think it was introduced with the "Grey Wolves" (SHIII) mod.

What about extracting it from the mod (with approval of the Grey Wolves creators of course), upgrading it with better textures and Daves name and implementing in a SH4 (maybe his RoW mod) mod?
It could be placed somewhere at Pearl Harbour so every captain leaving the Harbour can watch it when leaving the harbour.

Maybe we can do better than that. Given time, instead of a copy of the Moltenort Memorial, maybe a new monument can be constructed for Leovampire... IIRC, his favorite sub was the 'Dragonfish?'

Let me talk with the guys and see what shakes loose. (please don't expect a deadline/release date though)

Cool idea there.

That is a great idea - I've never managed to get out to Hawaii (yet), but from pictures I've seen, it must be moving to leave Pearl passing by the Arizona memorial - I think it would be cool to be able to see a memorial to Dave/lost subs off to port or starboard as you leave Pearl in SH4.

Dave's favorite boat was apparently the USS Seadragon, SS-194 (a Sargo class boat).

Thanks for kicking this around with your team

Here is the Torsk prop that is used for a memorial located in Philadephia. Perhaps to give you an idea on what to do on Pearl.

Cool bit! Maybe throw in some anchors, flags, and guardsmen too for an 'original' monument that has a plausible/believeable appearance.

Will be some time though if we are able to do something, due to current obligations.

Without trying to hijack this thread though... it deserves a good brainstorm session... to also represent past members (and the unfortunate necessity of allowing for future events) who are 'on eternal patrol' now.

I'll make my donation at a later time as I have my brothers funeral costs to cover. What a crappy year and it's still January.
