A bit of seattle history passes...

I know some of you have mentioned interest in our local maritime history, and such things as the wooden boat center...

and my favorite song that some might remember from the radio or folklife festival..

Song link was broken by the board software. This one should work though.

Thanks for sharing this.

Sounds like a wonderful man. Whether the rest of them know it or not, he had a big impact on our local diving community, if for no other reason than having a big impact on our own LJ James.

My thoughts are with you LJ.

Thank you all :)

Stan was my Uncle, and a true renaissance man.

He inspired more than a few to try diving in our emerald sea :)

Thanks for sharing. Sorry for your loss.

I remember listening to Stan at the Center for Wooden Boats back when I was with the Lady Washington.
