hopefully he will be able to return to his work at the academy. I was
contacted today by Jaime Sarna, please read her message below:
Message from Jaime Sarna, Propeller Club, Ports of Searsport/Bucksport
Dear Casey- can you spread the word? We'd like to get enough hats so
that Larry can wear a different one every day until he's back on the
ship, and know we all care!
"Larry Wade, Captain of the "State of Maine," Maine Maritime's
training ship, had to leave the vessel in Italy due to medical issues.
More information can be found at www.mma.edu and at www.caringbridge.org,
where his family is keeping a journal, updated daily, with Captain
Wade's medical reports. The Propeller Club, Ports of Searsport and
Bucksport, is devoting our June meeting to recording video notes and
assembling a package of letters, small gifts and photos to send to
Larry Wade. The meeting, June 21 at the Chowder House in Belfast, is
open to all, reservations required. Call Miss Betty at 338-3000 to
make reservations.If you'd like to send along a memento, please post
it to: Propeller Club, c/o Sarna, PO Box 106, Penobscot, Maine 04476.
We're suggesting ball caps with logos reflecting your maritime
involvements, photos of yourself with your family or on ships, and
notes of encouragement. Anything else you'd like to send would be
appreciated, too. Call Port President Jamie Sarna at 326-9039 for more
information.

Wade is alive and well- you can read his daily blog at the website I
provided previously. There have been many responses to Capt Wade
through that site so this one is not really neccessary now. I wanted
to make sure that anyone who comes across this site gets the message
and knows where to write so that he wil get your messages.
If you have any questions or comments you can leave them here. But
this I am no longer keeping this topic 'sticky' or at the top of the
page.
Thanks.
