[Rhodes22-list] sorry

[Frank Goldsmith]

In fact it was just on Wednesday of this week that Stan told me that engaging (literally) story of his early sailing date with Rose, after he, in the manner of the engineer that he was and is, had determined that she checked all the boxes on his engineer’s checklist for a first mate, save a commitment to sailing.  After that maiden voyage, she checked off that one, too, and the rest is history.  A beautiful, long-enduring history. 

If any of you are lucky enough to find yourself in Edenton, NC, one afternoon and Stan says he’s available for a visit, there are many more stories he can tell, all captivating.  Besides, Edenton is a charming town.
