for a number of years holding a variety of chairs as well as a being multiple
term past president.

Stand down sailor, Your watch is done, the danger over.
You were trained well to obey each demand, so take this and heed this final
command. Rest your body, close your eyes as we weep the loss when a good sailor
dies. Bask in peace, that you can enjoy, embrace it for us, let it too be our
joy. The life you have lived will constantly remind and bring on a smile to
those you leave behind. We thank you for your serving. Your loyalty stood true,
and hope someday we will meet up with you. RIP
