Charlie Slaydon

[DollFin]

Charlie Slaydon, a member of the Galveston Bay sailing community for well over 40 years, passed away over the weekend after a very long battle with a variety of health issues including Leukemia. Charlie was a cantankerous old sailor but had a heart of gold and was a very dear friend to David and me. We are in contact with his family; they are planning a memorial service and we will post the information once the arrangements have been made. His family does have his cell phone, so if anyone who knew him well needs to get in touch with his family, they can be reached at that number.
