    Captain Tom LeMarchand RN

    Received from Warwick Franklin[wbf]

    'Just to let you know that Captain Tom LeMarchand RN, passed away on 19th December aged 75 after a ten year battle with Alzheimer's. We are having a Thanksgiving Service at St Mary's Church, Woodbridge IP12 4LP at 2pm on Friday 24th February which will be a Thanksgiving for his very full and happy life.'

    Captain LeMarchand was CO of HMS Cleopatra from June 1987 - January 1989. I know some of you would have served with him or knew of him. A submariner by trade he served as Captain SM3 and also in Valiant (CO during Falklands war), Narwhal, Opportune, Warspite and Dreadnought.

    Bernards Funeral was today, lots of RNA members attended, including CDr. Harry Harley President of No 10 Area RNA who give a lovely little homily.

    Bernard was a National Serviceman in the RN and served on HMS Ocean in the Suez Crisis in 1956, he will be missed by everyone who knew him in the RNA and outside and our thoughts are with his family at this sad time.

    If circumstances were different next week I would attend but I have just been off sick for a few days and two of my work colleagues are away next week, one holiday and one bereavement so only me in.
    It is never too late to be what you might have been.
