Post subject:  VALE Tassie Coulson
It is with absolute sadness that I inform you, that our old mate Gary Coulson (Tassie), passed away at 9.30 this morning in Hobart. As you may have been aware, Tassie has been undergoing kidney dialysis for some time now, but yesterday his doctors decided to discontinue the treatment and he passed away peacefully this morning.

Tassie was a Chippy in the the 13th Intake and was a member of the Skilled Hands site (member No. 86)

A sad day indeed, another of our brothers passes over the bar.

Fair winds and smooth seas Tassie, we will miss you.

Ned.

May you have fair winds and a following sea wherever you travel, Tassie.

And my sympathies to your loved ones left behind.

Whilst Tassie had many friends in the 13th MOBI Intake, with he and I being
the only two 'singles', we invariably found ourselves sharing accomodation at
most of our 13th MOBI Intake Reunions/ Cruises... :3some: :3some: :3some:

We got to talk a lot on those occasions and I got to know him much better in
recent years than I ever did at RANATE... :partyman:

=; I've used that photo of Tassie and I fitting the prop tube to The MOBI
Yacht 'Nirimba' on many a promotional blurb about the yacht... :evil3:

It will have a different reverence from now on... :-k

One of the 13th MOBI Intake's true characters, he will be sadly missed... :notworthy:

Well done, Hippy one....you're getting good at this.
A very fitting tribute.

Thanks Peter, I know you'd do no less for any mate of yours... :thumbright:

Whilst Tassie was a Member and regular visitor to RAN Skilled Hands,
he never actually :type: posted...
If he had, you would have seen this avatar... Image

A fitting tribute, Rick.

It is always sad to hear of ex-matelots passing the bar, but it is especially moving when it is one of the MOBI clan.

When it is one of your intake, then it is almost family.

RIP Tassie :salute:
