Binnacle List Update: Ted Taylor

Pat Householder just sent out an e-mail updating us on Ted Taylor's condition and I wanted to share it here.

Shipmates,

As you probably know Ted Taylor has been having health issues this past few months, and been in and out of the hospital for care. The Doctors have finally figured out what is happening, and the news is not good. Ted has cancer and it has spread to multiple sites in his body. Ted started chemo treatments last Monday and they will continue at three week intervals.

Ted has served faithfully as Seattle Base Chief of the Boat these past 10 years, in addition to his duties in various positions in the Lockwood Chapter of SVWWII. Ted and Loma just celebrated their 42nd wedding anniversary. Please keep them both in your thoughts and prayers.

I am sure Ted and Loma would appreciate any messages of encouragement and support.

If you would like Ted's address, e-mail, or phone number to send him some well wishes, you can contact me, Dave Schueler, or Base Commander Keith Watson. Just use the link on the right to go to the Seattle Base Home Page and you will find our contact information there. We will be happy to give you Ted's contact information.
