Mrs. Ready, my name is Mark Halvorsen. I was a EM3 Electricians Mate and prior to that a Boiler tech in the Fireroom. Your husband was a true inspiration to me. He and the Xo asked me if I wanted to take a Naui commercial dive class with him. He knew that I put in a request to leave the bula for Mark 5 Navy Dive School Pearl Harbor. He not only approved my request but took this Naui dive school with me.
I’m so sorry to hear of his passing. I have loved telling the stories about what he meant to me. In closing I also remember that he drove a VW bug in Pearl. God bless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
