Re: David Collman
Sad that we see so many leaving us it seems to be happening more and more,but suppose that it is now getting to the time that many more of us will pass that gate!
Again not knowing Dave Coleman but knowing yet another of our Shipmates is gone!
May the Winds be calm and guide his sails to the places he once loved!
Go in Peace David
Condolences to those that are near and dear to him!
Sincerely!
