All,

Not sure how many of you knew my dad (or ever bought sails from him years ago). He was an avid sailor and owned Performance Sails, a loft in West End Park. I wanted to let the community know of his passing. He and I were able to enjoy the past several years sailing together on Arethusa, thanks to our friends Doug and Ben White.

If you remember him, feel free to share any memories here.
