For Whom The Bell Tolls
Skip once said this quotation ran through
his mind many times while at sea standing watch in the middle of the ocean, I think it only fitting that we record it here to commemorate his passing.
We will all miss you Skip,
You were an inspiration to all who knew you.
"Fair winds and following seas "Skip"and long may your big jib draw!"
No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were: any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind, and therefore never send to know for whom the bells tolls; it tolls for thee."
