[PSUBS-MAILIST] cancer

 I'm deeply saddened to hear this news and a bit shocked that we lost him so quickly.  Brian was a very nice guy and also very supportive of our group.  I think his first drawings of submarine Esmae appeared on the website around 2000, maybe even earlier, so it was a decades old dream of his which he turned into reality.  My condolences to his wife and family who are navigating a difficult path at this time. 
Here I am, LordIs it I, Lord?I have heard you calling in the nightI will go, LordIf you lead meI will hold your people in my heart

  Good morning All,I received a call less than an hour ago from Terry (Brian's wife) letting me know that he passed away at about 2:00 PM yesterday afternoon.  He went peacefully to be with the Lord. 
Brian told his wife to just keep his sub in storage but she doesn't see any sense in that.  She said that I could have anything off of it I wanted or could use for my sub.  My sub is almost finished but I'm sure that some of you out there can use some things like high pressure valves, plexiglass portholes (that have been annealed), scuba tanks (he had 10 of them!) and LOTS of lead.  I tried talking to Terry about the dollar value of some of those things but she didn't seem interested in the money she could get for them (I don't think she is looking long term right now).  I don't feel comfortable about just helping myself so I will be insisting on giving her some cash for the batteries from his boat (if I get them) and some of his books (I know his library had some good titles because I gave him some).  I'll have more information on what's available after I call her again in 2 weeks or so and will let all of you know at that time.
God bless, Jim
