On December 11, 2004, the City of Long Beach established an installation of the Lone Sailor Memorial Statue in Bluff Park overlooking Long Beach Harbor. At said time, I dedicated a commemorative brick in his name. On December 18, 2004, we married overlooking the Long Beach Harbor on the Italian Roof Deck at the Historic Villa Riviera, which was once known as “Home of Admirals” as many officers of the U.S. Navy occupied residency during WWII and continuing through the early 1950s.
