In Memoriam

A Memorial to Our Shipmates and Friends who have Crossed the Bar
And Embarked Upon That Final Voyage Into the Sunset.
May Their Souls Rest In Peace.

Eternal Father, strong to save,
Whose arm hath bound the restless wave,
Who bidd'st the mighty ocean deep
Its own appointed limits keep:
O hear us when we cry to thee
For those in peril on the sea.
