I would like some privacy and time to heal. We have lost an amazing person with a huge heart, and unbelievable talent. He died doing what he loved.

karelm 3,096 Posted June 23, 2015 Share Posted June 23, 2015 Though not official, this does not look promising. As a composer, skipper and pilot, I understand the call of the sea and sky. If this is true (as it increasingly appears to be) I must say he died doing what he loved and that is a rare and good thing. That you lived your life pursuing your passion to the fullest. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
