All,
I posted this on ScubaBoard, and I'll post it here:
If anyone would like to send any words of hope and support for the survivor, please PM them to me, and I will ensure he gets them.
Thanks,

Re: Dive Accident in Nanaimo
Its kinda of sad now that both have been publicly identified. Now its finally real. I first dove with John and Bob at Lobster Shop Wall sometime ago.
Bob was a pretty experienced and knowledgeable diver that John looked up to. John was just beginning to dive doubles back then.
He was a very enthusiastic diver, looking forward to learning more about deco, deco gas selection, trimix, and tec diving.
Always had a smile and something nice to say when I'd see him around.

So sorry for the loss of your friends. It is always hard, always sad.
Re: Dive Accident in Nanaimo
Sorry to drag up old bad news, but was there ever any update on what happened, were they doing deep air etc? A lot of speculation at the time.
