MessageDiscovered a couple of youtube videos this afternoon you might be in interested in: The first is a video of the Defoe Shipbuilding Yard in Bay City, MI during World War II where the USS Spangler was constructed. The second is on the launching of the USS Currier DE-700, one of the Spangler's sister ships. The Spangler website's News Section has links to the two videos if interested.

Enjoy! I did!

MessageThe following, sad to report, is a note from Sue Goers lettings us know that her husband and our Spangler Mate and good friend, A.J. Goers recently passed away:

Dear Spangler Sailors,
It is with a broken heart that I tell you that A.J. died on Good Friday at 5:15 and our children were with me at his bedside. He had been in the hospital in St. Louis for only 6 days. The doctors told us he died of acute leukemia. Months of blood tests, x-rays, and cat scans did not detect this disease. If you have addresses of other Spangler mates I would appreciate if you could pass along this news. Especially the Clugstons, Baums, and Simms. I know I have the addresses around here somewhere but I’m just not thinking very well. We are all still in shock over his rapid decline and death. A.J. was so fond of all of you and your spouses and we often reminisced about past gatherings. Thanks to all of you for the good times!
Sadly,
Sue

MessageHi Debbie, wonderful hearing from you but so very sad to hear about your dad. I never met him in person but shared some phone calls and emails. He was always so pleasant to visit with. I'd love to post a remembrance page in his memory with your help. I'll be contacting you by email.
