• New Years Eve-What'sUP December 31 - 08:44 pm

We not only come to the end of the month today, but also the end of the year 2014. As is our long-standing custom here at the Pasty Cam, we pause from our usual daily routine to feature a beautiful sunset and reflect upon the names of those that have passed on before us. Today we remember:

Happy New Year Dad. I'll raise a cold one for you
tonight. Miss you.

I'll certainly miss EddyFitz and stories of his time on the big ships.

Remembering our parents Norman and Helen Pooley, Ed and Sophie Kuusisto, Aunt Lyle Pooley, our sister in law and dear friend Phyllis Kuusisto, Karen Kuusisto, Janet Trasti, our good buddy Nitz Kumpula, our nephew “The Chief” Churchill, our sweet niece Rosie Churchill, Our niece Bailey Hartmann, our brother in law and friend Wayne Hartmann our sister and best friend Flo Hartmann and our dear sweet baby girl Annie Kuusisto.
We love and miss you all so much.

Even though another year is passing, the sweet memories of my husband, Frank, are always fresh.

Condolences to the families of all those you mentioned, Mary.

I am so sorry to hear that EddyFitz has passed away. I loved his postings. He was a wealth of knowledge on freighters.

David C. I, too, will miss EddyFitz's postings. It's like loosing a friendly knowledgeable neighbor. My sympanthys to his family.

Beautiful photo! Gorgeous really. Lots of beauty in
this hard life.

In loving memory, My Aunt and God-Mother, Virginia

No deaths in the this family the past month, although Nat did have a scare as her Mom was diagnosed with cancer at the beginning of the month. Thankfully, she has already had her surgery, is back home, and getting stronger everyday. I also concur with the sentiments concerning Ed; he will surely be missed....

Also, I just received three 2015 Pasty calendars today (all great photos, btw) and I noticed on February a glaring mistake! The MTU All-Nighter is not on Friday the 6th, but Wednesday the 4th (the day Nat and I fly into Houghton). How could such a travesty occur????? ;-)

Thinking about my dad today. Six years ago this
month he passed away, and now I see listed here his
best friend, Block Miron. I didn't know he passed.
He was a great person, wonderful to my mom after my
dad passed. He helped so many people. The world
will miss him. My sympathies to his wife and
daughters.

"Fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate'er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all!"

In loving memory of Nancy Rajaniemi my mother, who
passed away on December 27, 2014. We were lucky to
have this one last Christmas with her before she
passed. My father passed away a little over a
year ago, so now they are together in eternal
rest. RIP ma and dad, you both are dearly missed.

In memory of my K-9 Boxer Duke, who went to the Rainbow Bridge on Dec. 30, 2000.

Please remember the servicemen who have died this month.William H.DuBois 30,Matthew R.Ammerman 29,Wyatt J.Martin,22.Killed 6850.Wounded 52219.

Farewell, Eddie Fitz. Your knowledgeable e-mails to the kids in my
class brought geography and life on the Great Lakes alive for them.

My dear cousin lost his dear friend that I was
honored to meet. Richard Federighi, and I just
learned of Lonzaree Davy's passing....fly mighty
high....you've earned that! See you on the other
side!

Happy New Year.

Happy New Year, to one and all...;O)

Lisa, so sorry for the recent loss of your Mother. May God comfort you and your family.
