It is my sad responsibility to share the news that Shipmate Lietuvos Sv. Kazimieras died suddenly on Saturday. I've been informed by a reliable landlubber, but have no further information at present.

Please pray for him and his partner A.
May he rest in peace, and rise in glory.

I'm saddened by a fellow Delaware-based Shipmate passing.

I took the time to look up his last post (May 4, 2016, in Styx, I believe):

Thanks. I'm going to try the Always allow cookies setting (it was previously on "For sites I visit") and see if that does the trick. If not, I'll go to Heaven.
