Alfred Livingstone document. Salesman (I remember him bringing us a huge bag of Whip & Chill chocolate pudding. Moved to California.
Loved sailing, crewed on sailboats all over the world. Became a charter member of the Sausalito Yacht Club. He donated a huge shark's jaw bones to the club, which named an annual competition "Jaws" after them.
Here is the wording of the announcement of his memorial service:
-----------------
We are deeply saddened to announce that our Father, Charles "Bud" Livingstone, passed away the morning of January 9, 2017.
He had been diagnosed woth metasticized cancer in September, where it was found in his lymph nodes, rib bones, kidneys, and liver. A short bout of chemo was effective to all but the kidney and liver cancers. As you would imagine of Bud, he was strong and full of vigor until the last two weeks of his life when he agreed to home hospice. He was always kind and full of his unique Livingstone charm, wit and humor until the very end.
He passed away into a stormy morning surrounded by the love of his two daughters and two grandchildren, at home, asleep and without pain. His last words... "Oh! Hello!"
His Memorial Ceremony will be held on February 19, 2017, at the Sausalito Yacht Club in Sausalito, California, 3-4 pm. Cash bar reception to follow.
