We were on that ship and I didn't hear about this until now.

After further investigation I realized that Howard and his wife and friends were sitting at our dinner table each evening on the Oasis. We saw them at Orient beach Wednesday around noon but we left for the ship by 1:30.

We never saw them again for dinner and wondered what happened.
My wife Ann and I are in Shock.

Having only met Howard, (the man who died)a few days earlier I can say that he was a real gentleman and had just sold his company looking forward to his retirement.
