    It was time to go, Nonnie said so.

    Hope you’re back on the ship sailing the high seas once again

    Enjoy the peace and quiet while it lasts, that’s until we are all together again.

    Love you Grandpa, rest peacefully

  4. Albie,
    So sad to learn of your passing. You were one of, if not, the best captain I sailed with. Our time together on Australian Advance was always happy and productive. I learnt to be a better deck officer serving with you.
    A top captain and a great shipmate.
