In case you missed it on WhatsUP last week, the second photo above accompanied these comments:

We had a great memorial service for EddyFitz (Chaput) at the Fitz anchor site on Belle Isle this week. He will be forever watching the ships sail by along the Detroit River as they head on up to the Great U.P. he loved so much.
Thanks for all your visits with him throughout the years on this and the Boatnerd sites. You all became his friends as he was able to share his memories and times with!

He will be missed by all that knew him!
Bye Dad, Leon Chaput and family.

Thanks Charlie....so glad you and Edie are back home where you belong!

Thanks so much for adding this post! I remember passing the
Bishop Baraga statue many times during our trips to Copper
Harbor. My Dad was so proud of his brother Arts handiwork!
We Chaput's all had much smaller pieces of Arts work on our
mantles at home.

You're right, Leon...Ed is missed. Thanks for the post.
And Charlie...glad to hear that things are progressing for Edie and you.

I remember when Dad brought Mom home from the Mayo
Clinic and she cried when she came down the
driveway to our home on Grosse Pte Shores. I know
that is how you and Edie felt Charlie! God Bless
you!

So happy to hear that you guys are back home,
Charlie. I can't imagine being away from home for
that long, and especially with the beautiful view
you have from your home. Here's hoping that
everything is smooth sailing for the both of you
from now on.

Thanks for posting these pictures.

Yes, EddyFitz will be remembered for a long time ~ his posts were always interesting.

Charlie and Edie, so glad to hear that you're home once again! Now, get some rest and enjoy it.:)

Very interesting photos and welcome home to you and
Edie!

Charlie, I am so glad that you and Edie are back home again.

Charlie and Edie, you've had quite a journey these many months; so glad you are finally back in your home. There's no place like home! God bless you both!! :-)
