Forever Loyal, Rob Secher. Heartache.

[Diver Dennis]

Catherine and JB, I just found out this morning. It's hard to express the sorrow for such a loss. He was a proud Marine, just like Jim and we are lucky to have men and women like Cubby to fight for us. They go without question and do their duty.


Sad indeed.

 

[Cacia]

thanks so much.

I have a manuscript he gave Jb before Jim left him. It is really riveting and poetic. I hope his best friends and pallbearers will consider writing the last chapter. An interesting assortment of men---A Juliard (NYU?) music major, an Instuctor at the Naval Academy, a Harvard Kennedy school of government student, Wall Street trader...etc, etc.

Also, must get a copy to his mother.

Hurry "home" Dennis.

Sounds like quite an accomplished human being. What a horrible loss.

 

[Cacia]

hope to see YOU soon, Chantal!

Someone from SB just sent me this:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/15458906/site/newsweek (not for commentary/ politics...just if you care to read it, pretty interesting)

That was a pretty intense story. Gives you a real prespective on what is going on and a insight on how things are going for our troops. The way Robert wrote could draw you in as though you were right there with him.

Catherine, thanks for the link to the news article. I read every word. Rob seemed like such an intelligent young man and a credit to his country. What a waste.

 

[Cacia]

I agree. He was a class act too.

I cannot beleive JB hasn't read his manuscript yet.

Centurion Integritas, indeed
Thank you Catherine

I just got my Newsweek yesterday and Robert Secher was in it (like the link you sent). I don't think they printed the entire story like what is on line. It didn't say anything about his past or about writing a book later on. It did have some pictures in it though.
