Thanks Michael, I'll add him to the list.

[Duchess]

It's been 20 years and I know it's unreasonable to believe that none of us would sail on. But I find I'm willing to entertain quite a bit of unreasonableness if it means that folks I've known are out in the world  simply carrying on with their lives.

For whatever reason and all the reasons, this hits hard today.

[LadyBarbossa]

I understand that Mad Davy Flint passed away back in November. No doubt he'll be sorely missed. 😔🏴‍☠️

We'll be sure to raise a rum for our lost comrades this holiday 😢

Raising a toast to our fallen friends, comrades & family!

[madPete]

Yup - got a whole bottle of Apple Pie from DB Couper (bought at the Ft Gaines Auction before the mast).

I think thats perfect to toast our fallen brothers and sisters.

[Mary Diamond]

Ah, such sadness… may they never be forgotten.

 

Perhaps the loved ones

who go on ahead of us

are waiting for us now…

waiting in a place

where every moment

is happy and peaceful.

Perhaps they are waiting

to tell us a story,

one with the happiest ending of all…

and what seemed to us 

to be the ending

is really only the beginning.

[Stynky Tudor]

I've added another handful that I either known personally or from events.

Anyone that can help with dates or the names of folks I've neglected to add, please sound off.

Thanks Michael...

[William Brand]

Silas Thatcher was Bob Mrazik in real life.  The most amiable of mates and an expert candle maker.

[madPete]

Silkie McDonough was MaryAnne Fleckenstein, artist extraordinaire.
