IN REMEMBRANCE
AG1 Saul Singer, USN REL
March 28, 2008

April 13, 2008

It is with deep sadness that I report the death of my father, Saul Singer, of East Brunswick, NJ, on 3/28/08. 

My father was an aerographers mate in the navy in WW 2 and remained fascinated with weather until the end. During the 1980's, and I believe, the early 90's, he attended some reunions on the East Coast, and often wrote stories for the Aerographer. 

He was asked to be editor at one point years ago, but refused, stating that he did not think he was a good enough writer. He was a terrific writer and I found some copies of articles that he had sent to the Aerograph over the years. They were filled with his wonderful sense of humor, and they made me chuckle at a time of great sadness. 

He was very proud to be a member of NWSA and to contribute to the Aerograph. I recall him speaking fondly of a couple of people over the years, Moon Mullins, Gene Merrill, and others whose names I unfortunately can't recall. For those who knew him, thanks for bringing enjoyment to his life at the reunions and through the Aerograph. 

He was 96 years old and lived independently to the end. He was not only a wonderful father, but my best friend.
