S2 7.9 Meter Class Association

A good friend of mine, and a great friend to our class, former Class President, newsletter editor, and all around 7.9 advocate for many years, John Snow, has passed away following a brief illness, leaving behind wife Marie, and two small children. Funeral arrangements are pending, and will be posted when known.

I raced with and against John in the class for many years, and in all that time, never heard him utter a bad word about anyone - we should all be so lucky to have such a legacy.

He will be missed.

My thoughts are with Marie and the family.
Talked to John, several times, when I first got my boat. Always cheerful and helpful.

Marie, Abigail, and Danielle invite friends to gather at the Bacarella
Chapel - Earle Little Funeral Home at 1201 S. Telegraph Rd. in Monroe,
MI from 2-5 and 6-9 tomorrow.

The funeral service will be held at 11 AM Friday morning at St. Paul's
Methodist Church at 210 S. Monroe St. in Monroe.

You are invited to join friends for a luncheon at North Cape Yacht Club
immediately following the service.

Thanks to Matt Dubois for arranging for flowers to be sent from all the members of The S2 7.9 Class Association.

John represented the best ethic of the sport - He gave more than he received. We all have benefitted from what John and Marie did, and the legacy that they helped perpetuate for 7.9ers.
