The USS Appomattox's running lights have been dimmed, and all ship operations has come to a stop due to the loss of our Executive Officers mother.
We are all sadden with the loss of Margaret's mom.
Mrs. Grunwell has helped out, and supported our chapter a whole lot.
She was given the honorary rank of Retired Admiral on behalf the entire group for her contining service to the chapter.
We will miss her and I hope the crew and everyone will help us morn her passing.

God Bless.

Rear Admiral John M. Sprouse
