I'm Ken Parese formerly of Staten Island NY now in Poughkeepsie NY.I served aboard the Sierra from May 1959-July 1962 as an ET with the R-6 Department. Some of the members of our department were Bob Adams, Philadelpjia, Byron Reynolds and Bob Churchill of Massachusetts. We did a Med Cruise in 1959 from June - December. I'm looking from an ET named David R. (Ron) Powell from Euclid OH. Has anyone seen him? Cheers, Ken kparese@hvc.rr.com
I am now an attorney practicing law in Chattanooga, TN. There is a court officer in the Hamilton County Juvenile Court who served on Sierra at the same time as I.

This is a message for the shipmates of Dennis R. Smith from Arab, AL.
I am leaving this message here, just in case any of you are out there. Dennis served aboard the Sierra until June 1 ,1992., as a machinery repairman. I regret to inform you, that he passed away on August 26th, 2012. He had a sudden and fatal heart attack. As a family, we thought you should know, and are sorry we had no knowledge of how to contact most of you. -Mrs. Dennis R Smith( Julee)

Some of those names sound familiar, I'm certain I remember Quick, but it seems like he was ML1st Class when I recall him. Heimbaugh sounds familiar also. The Officer in charge of the School was Lt. Owen Did you know him? I'll see if I can dig out some of my old notes to get some names. Also have some pictures, but scanning and pasting isnt my forte. Talk to you later.
What a story. If I remember correctly, Bill Hickey was from Ohio, but his wife was from Louisiana. Also her sister was married to a sailor. I met them both at Norfolk. What an honor it was for you to escort him back to New Orleans and present the flag to his widow. I cant remember her name, but she was very nice. I serve on the Honor Guard at our VFW Post, so I can appreciate what you did. Chief McBride did the same thing you said when I was aboard. If I remember right (and that would be different) Chief McBride told me he came in the Navy as a Chief during WW11. Please let me know if you remember anymore stories. Thanks
