 Gervase Rybak
reports that our shipmate Ron Vallecorsa
passed away on February 8, 2009. Ron had a long battle with cancer over
the last couple of years. Gervase had talked with and E-mailed Ron over
the years. They had a nice phone conversation about three months ago
and he always had good words to say about life. Ron always had a
positive outlook with his battle with cancer and we had a ton of
laughs. When onboard the Snook, I know he had a good time and enjoyed the company of his shipmates. “WHOP” I hope you are in a good place and will remember us when we come to visit you wherever you are at the time. God’s speed “whop” …Drink to the foam…. |
