Sad News

New Bern, SC
No LL

We just arrived in New Bern. When I checked my email, I found the following sad message. I'm sure that many blog readers knew Fred Fearing personally and may care to send some words via Mr. Gray please do so by the 20th.

Good afternoon,

My name is Brian Gray, and I am an editor with the Daily Advance in Elizabeth City, NC. I am trying to contact cruisers on the intra-coastal waterway who knew Mr. Fred Fearing, who passed away this morning at 93 years old.

We are working on a story about him to run in the next few days, and if you have any statements regarding Mr. Fearing that you would like to share, please email by Oct. 20th.

Feel free to pass this on to any other cruisers who may have known him, and they are welcome to send a statement as well. Include your name, month and year you encountered Mr. Fearing if possible.

Here is a link to the article on our site:

Thank you!
