Marianne and Joan, my deepest sympathy goes out to you and your family. Just remember the love and memories. Love you all Deb Rainville
My heart goes out to you. I hope many fond memories carry you all through and lighten your hearts. My mom, Helen Russell (Fricault) would often tell me about an uncle who was a Submariner, it sounded so exotic to a kid. I too was a Submariner, for 22 years. Fair winds and following seas seas shipmate, you can rest your oars, we have the watch.

I’m sorry for your loss. Joe was a great guy and I loved seeing him at the THRESHER memorials with my Dad. My Dad had tried to reach out before he passed this past September, but was unable to reach him. I am sure that they all are with their shipmates in heaven. Prayers for you all.
