So sorry to hear of JB's passing. He and I became good friends and shipmates in the 70's when stationed at COSP. He was a great professional and a helluva running mate. I have many fond memories of our time together and he will be sadly missed. My deepest thoughts and prayers to his family. RIP shipmate, we have the watch.
Sorry to hear of Jerry's passing. What a great shipmate and friend. He was my mentor at first duty station and watch section at Coos Head. I'm sure he will be missed by all who knew him.
JB and I used to explore San Diego in depth, and our time at COSP was full of many great memories. I will never forget his description of a "hun yukker" and how they were responsible for countless system problems. Will see you again soon JB. Fair Winds buddy.
JB's services will be at Camino De Vida Church, 3907 Isleta Blvd. SW, Albuquerque, NM 87105 on 25 March. Visitation will be from 1030 to 1100 followed immediately by the service, Color Guard and Gun Salute.
JB was another dear old friend of mine from "yesteryear". My thoughts and prayers are with his family at this very difficult time. "Rest In Peace Old Friend". Ed Smock
