At our RNA meetings we always do the Exhortation before we start and I always ask members to spare a moment for absent friends, this morning I mentioned Admiral Treacher in my Little Eulogy.

Very sad news, another great man passed.
My first seagoing skipper on Lowie 1965, what a gentleman, met up again on the Eagle's last commission when he was Flag Officer Carriers and Amphibious Ships (FOCAS) and I was a lowly LREM on the 984 Radar.
He will be sadly Missed.
Only spoke to him and his wife at the reunions, but a really nice guy. I remember his first speech at Chatham, quite and eye opener.
RIP
Godspeed John Treacher and happy landings.
A Celebration Service of Sir John’s life will be held at 1530 on Friday 14th September 2018 at St. Columba’s Church, Pont Street, London SW1X 0BD.
It was a truly memorable and fitting service to celebrate the life of one of our finest Naval Officers and gentleman.Quote:
