The FReeper Canteen Crew sadly announces the passing of Mr. Tonkin. (68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub).

If you would like to leave a message for his family, please direct them to amom.

Also, we ask that you send prayers to amom, his son Matthew, family, and friends.

We love you, Mr. Tonkin. Say 'hello' to Texas Cowboy for all of us.

You're missed and will never be forgotten.

 

We hope to make this an online memorial book for his family.

Details will be provided later regarding funeral services.

I like your screen name.
Has a Orwellianish tone to it.

Knew this day was coming, but it’s still sad. At least he’s not suffering anymore. Prayers for his family.

I am very sorry for your loss. I admired Tonkin very much and prayed for him. May he rest in God’s peace now.

My deepest sympathies and prayers to the family and loved ones of Mr. Tonkin. I only knew him as a fellow FReeper, but always enjoyed seeing his posts and admired him for his passion and love of country.

Tonkin - Godspeed. My dear friend Seabreeze has gone before and I would imagine you'll have a lot to share - he'll never be forgotten and neither will you. Thank you for your service to our country - a precious gift for which 'thanks' isn't nearly enough.

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty - Psalm 91

Coast Guard saved a 42 foot fishing vessel here off of the Oregon Coast.

Looks like our FReeper Buddy has already been asigned to his angel post. (wink wink).
