  1. Mason served in the US Navy aboard the USS Truckee AO 147, a tanker ship. I served aboard the USS Independence, CVA62. We were well acquainted through family friendships. I have never forgotten through the years the vision of him standing on the deck of the Truckee when they came alongside to refuel us, and him yelling over, “I’ll tell everybody at home I saw you and you said Hello.” I felt how lucky he was to just sail over to the Med, refuel the ships, and sail back to Norfolk. Well, now the time has come to say, “Farewell, fair-winds, and following seas.” This and other memories will last forever. Blessings for the family and friends who share their loss.

  2. We meant Mason thru his Heating & Cooling company—and he then became a close friend! Of course I had to pick on him as I served in the Marines and he served in the Navy! We did a number of work trips with him and his wife and had numerous funny stories from them. I tried to keep in touch every Friday as we’re now in Phoenix and we had a running joke that he would always call me on Fridays when I had cut back to 4 days a week so I continued it with my texting him. Will miss him! Our thoughts are with his family!
