16 OCT 2020 ~ from Jim Schenk:

"My pressure hull cube from PSNY has been located.  I will bring it again to the next reunion in Williamsburg in April."



I have been trying to locate this 2-14" cube of SSN-664's HY-80 pressure hull. I believe that I was showing it at the 2019 Reunion banquet. I remember being deep into the banquet hall when I was unexpectedly called away after new Association Commander Skip Short was approaching the end of his remarks. I don't remember getting back to that table to recover my cube. Anyone knowing the whereabouts of said piece, please contact me ASAP. 

Thank you, ... Jim Schenk.

November 17, 2019 from Denise Blaha on the Sea Devil Facebook Page:

My Dad, Doug Blaha, continues to make steady progress in his stroke recovery.

He's been focused on mastering the skill of transferring from a wheelchair to a car which will enable him to join us for Thanksgiving in Yorktown.

And his walking is getting better and better!

Cards are still very much appreciated and can be sent to Brent's home:

An update on my Dad’s stroke recovery. He continues to make steady progress, but Dad is frustrated by the slow pace. 

His natural buoyant optimism of “Yes, I’ve had a stroke, but I’ll be fine in a few weeks” has had a head-on collision with the reality that stroke recovery is a LONG process. 

Plus, he’s not a fan of the food at the rehab facility!

Dad was able to briefly attend the SMART RV muster in nearby Urbanna, VA in late September. 

He thoroughly enjoyed seeing the many friends and travel companions he’s met over the years. 

And he’s already making plans to attend next year’s muster in Oklahoma.

Unfortunately, Mom wasn’t able to join him. She tripped and fell on the morning of the event and fractured her upper arm. 

She’s not in a cast or even a sling and is encouraged to move her arm as much as possible, but it is affecting her mobility and balance. 

And for that reason, we’ve decided that it’s best if Mom goes to stay with Dean and Terry in Delaware and then her sister Kay in Florida as she recovers. 

She will have people with her during the day and that eases our worries considerably.

Thank you for continuing to keep our family in your thoughts and prayers. Cards and notes are very much appreciated as they really buoy Dad‘s spirits. 

They can be sent to:

Doug Blaha

C/O Brent Blaha
103 Shorewood Trace 
Yorktown, VA 23693

God bless, Greenboard/Straightboard and all the best!
