You are welcome to add any names to this month's remembrance:

As I look at such a beautiful photograph of Lake Superior I would like to remember two good boating friends that passed away this month.
Scott Chilman - Skipper of the "Pelican Brief" and Glenn Beauchamp -First Mate and Chief of all maintenance on the "Ma's Mink". Both these guys were fine gentlemen that I was lucky to spend many an hour with at Presque Isle Marina in Marquette.

Dick Patana will surely be missed at the music functions. He was just such a nice guy. Saw him perform at the UP State Fair in Esky, and at the Aura Jamboree, etc. Condolances to his and the other families.

In memory of my friend, Jim Kennell, who died on 09/12/2003 in Pennsylvania after fighting a courageous and lengthy battle with cancer. Jim was a 1974 EE graduate of Michigan Tech who worked for 29 years with Bechtel/Westinghouse. Jim truly loved the outdoors and especially enjoyed the beauty of the Keweenaw and the U.P.
Jim was a caring and loving man who is deeply missed by his family and friends. Special condolences during this most difficult time are offered to his wife, Karen; daughters, Jamilyn and Alisha; parents, James and Shirley Kennell; and siblings, Steven Kennell and Sharon Hynes Michael.

In loving memory of a woman with a big heart who left us way too soon. We will miss Fran Prater (Payment) from Sault Ste Marie. May 3, 1964 - September 13, 2003. May your voice continue to sing in our hearts Fran.

Its been a year since we lost Mark Sutinen. We miss him terribly!

Beg to differ but my cousin, Dale Moilanen class President of Dollar Bay High School 1965 died on his 2nd tour of duty in Viet Nam in 1972....

Gene Raymond Koski lived in Keweenaw County and Dale (Honeyboy) Moilanen lived in Houghton County. I thank both young men for fighting with their lives to give us freedom.

Why fight about heroes? Houghton and Keweenaw counties are entertwined, and aren't we better for that?

D from Lake Linden:
Thank you for remembering my cousin "Honeyboy".
Such a nice young man taken much too early. I still miss him after all these years.

My grandfather, Thomas Olivier, who died last month. He spent his entire life in Marquette and helped me get through 4 years at Michigan Tech.

Rest in peace, Robert Palmer and Johnny Cash.
