Default Sad news in WAZOO land

WAZOO member Dennis Nebel (ZR Gator) passed away last night at Johns Hopkins after a battle with Liver Cancer. I received a call from his wife Terri this morning with the news. Details have not been finalized for his services yet, but I will post them when I get them. So long my brother, you will be greatly missed.

Details now posted:
Viewings Wed and Thurs 3:00pm-5:00 pm and 7:00 pm-9:00 pm
Funeral will be Friday at 10:00.
Kaufmans Funeral Home
7250 Washington Blvd

Internment will be in the Elkridge area after the service.
The family would love to have some ZR-1s in the procession.
Let me or Dave know if you are planning to attend.

Thanks,
Darrin

I have many memories of Dennis and Terri. They went with us to Bowling Green in 2010. On the way back, Dennis pulled from the back of the pack and passed all of the ZR-1's in the line. I thought he wanted to lead for a while. But it was so Teri could to take a picture of each ZR-1 and driver as she passed us.

Dennis served in the Army about the same time that I was starting out in the Navy and he always let me know that I was a bubblehead, an affectionate name for a submariner.

I remember the day we worked on Dennis's driver side window which would not go down. We never found the problem so we postponed further troubleshooting. Then Dennis had to leave and as he was backing out of the garage, he lowered his window to say good bye and we both stared at each other with stupid expressions of "what just happened here". We never figured out what was wrong or what we did that fixed it.

Dennis was a big Florida Gators fan and he used to give us a hard time about the Penn State Nittany Lions, but we knew that he was kidding.

I will miss you Dennis.



Jim

Just FYI
Several of us will be attending the 7:00-9:00 viewing this evening if anyone wants to join us.
There will also be 4 or 5 of us attending the funeral service on Friday.
