This issue is dedicated to the memory of E. A. "Pat" Garrett.
It is with a very heavy heart that I post this. One of our most enthusiastic local members, Dave Mericle, Sr. has passed away. Dave was diagnosed in February with throat cancer and despite a valiant effort, lost his battle with the disease yesterday. I have been told that he passed peacefully in his sleep. He has gone to join his fellow Alfisti at the finish line. Rest in peace, Dave.
In Loving Memory
February 1, 1935 to April 21, 2009 LCDR USN Ret.
