Reg (Paddy) Merrill
I learned today of the passing of our shipmate and friend, Reg (Paddy) Merrill from his wife in New Zealand.
Calm seas and a peaceful voyage old friend.
I am sad to inform you that my dearest husband Reg has died. We had a wonderful nearly 60 years together.
Thank you for his membership and thoughtfulness.
