The people listed below have passed on & wont have to 'blow soot' any more. Fair winds & gentle seas, we know you have gone to a better place because you have already done your watch in hell.
Please only send me details of deceased engineering personnel that you have first hand knowledge of their passing. The listing below is now in alphabetical order, except for the people who died on the WESTRALIA, & VOYAGER, I think they deserve to be in a group of their own, & can be found at the bottom of the list.
