he significance of Trinidad Memorial Lighthouse; the point of view
of this columnist:
A Trinidad city councilman strolled down to
the Memorial Lighthouse recently to ponder the fate
of this inspirational place and to take in the magnifi-
cent bay view with its bobbing boats, windy skies and
rugged sea stacks, so beautiful to observe and so dan-
gerous to navigate. He went over to the south side of
the lighthouse, where the names of 23 Lost at Sea U.S.
Coast Guardsmen, pilots, fishermen, sportsmen and
others are commemorated.
He observed a family taking pictures next to one of the
names on the Memorial Wall, where over 200 names of those Buried at Sea
are engraved. The family members, speaking softly among themselves, were
recalling stories of two individuals who had brought such goodness, generos-
ity and joy to their lives. The councilman did not wish to intrude on their mo-
Odyssey campers ment of grace, but he noticed that tears came to the eyes of a young man as he
touched the name of his mentors, whom hed traveled many miles to honor.
