Robert, who many know at the Deep Creek Lock, Dismal Canal, died this morning. That's one character that will be missed. *Rudy & Jill Sechez * *BRINEY BUG-a 34' Sail-Assisted Trawler * *850-832-7748* *www.trawlertrainingabc.com <http://www.trawlertrainingabc.com>* *Dismal Canal Southbound* <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> Virus-free. www.avg.com <http://www.avg.com/email-signature?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=webmail> <#DAB4FAD8-2DD7-40BB-A1B8-4E2AA1F9FDF2>

That's terrible news. Robert was a lock historian and a humorist, as well as incredibly helpful to anyone going through the Dismal Swamp. For our numerous journeys through the canal (never did like the alternative route) we always looked forward to seeing Robert and talking with him. More than once we tied up to Elizabeth's Dock for several days to wait out nor-easters and had the pleasure of joining Robert for coffee and donuts in the morning. <><><><><><><><><><><><>Mozilla Thunderbird<><><><><><><><><><> Bob McLeran and Judy Young Manatee Cove Marina MV Sanderling Patrick Air Force Base DeFever 41 Trawler for sale Melbourne, Florida Blog: http://mvsanderling.net/Blog Web: http://cruising.mvsanderling.net/ Site: http://Ourphotos.hopto.org Site: http://SanderlingBlog.hopto.org On 10/1/2020 09:55 AM, Rudy Sechez via Trawlers-and-Trawlering wrote: > Robert, who many know at the Deep Creek Lock, Dismal Canal, died this > morning.
