Martita B. Posted January 12, 2014 #1 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Was so sad to hear from Miss A's daughter that A. had to disembark in Hawaii due to a small stroke. Of course Seabourn has provided a rep to be with her while she is in the hospital and if she needs to fly home she'll have someone to accompany her. Thoughts and daily prayers for her speedy recovery ~ Martita B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony & Trevor Posted January 12, 2014 #2 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Thanks Martha, Thoughts and prayers with Miss A and her family. We do hope you are improving. Kind regards T & T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagi Posted January 12, 2014 #4 Share Posted January 12, 2014 A lovely person. Sending wishes for a speedy recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martita B. Posted January 12, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted January 12, 2014 I know Miss A and her family appreciates all the good wishes. And yes, she is a lovely Southern ( from Kentucky but has lived outside Baltimore for many years) lady. I just so hope she will recovery quickly and be able to rejoin the Sojourn ~no one loves Seabourn and the Crew members more than Miss A.

JaneBP Posted January 12, 2014 #6 Share Posted January 12, 2014 >"No one loves Seabourn and the Crew members more than Miss A." I wouldn't want to put that to a test, Miss M. I know it's not a contest, but my money is on you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cisleman Posted January 13, 2014 #7 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Thanks for letting us know. I passed her in the hall and at the Square each day and she even came to the Roaring 20's party for those of us on the full world cruise. Truly a gracious and beatiful lady. Hopefully it is not a major episode!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martita B. Posted January 13, 2014 Author #9 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Received a message from Miss A.s daughter late yesterday ~she was to fly home but talked and convinced those caring for her that she wanted to rejoin the Sojourn. Hoping she won't have another mini-stroke and will continue her world cruise. Thanks for other posters reviews. MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tv24 Posted February 16, 2014 #12 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Each night she's at her reserved table in the Observation Bar, always with an escort from the Seabourn staff...smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rl787 Posted February 17, 2014 #13 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Pardon my ignorance.....can someone tell me who Miss A actually is? I have heard about a lady who spends many months on Seabourn called Mrs W, the W refers to her surname..... is it the same person? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigella Posted February 17, 2014 #14 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) Pardon my ignorance.....can someone tell me who Miss A actually is? I have heard about a lady who spends many months on Seabourn called Mrs W, the W refers to her surname..... is it the same person? Yes, it's the same lady. Her first name begins with an A. I know our Martita is friends with her, hence refers to her as Miss A, rather than by surname, Mrs W. Oh and I believe she's approaching 3000 nights on Seabourn,not sure how true that is.

lincslady Posted February 17, 2014 #15 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Mrs. W (Miss A) is practically a mascot on Seabourn, in a way. Apart from the smoking, she is a very ladylike person; quiet and chats with others only occasionally. I for one was pleased to read that she is back on board and on good form - and I really dislike smoking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martita B. Posted February 17, 2014 Author #16 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I met Miss A 14 years ago on the Pride and yes, she is very much a quiet, Southern lady and has sailed probably close to 5,000 days (she and Mr & Mrs Cass, from England have many days aboard Seabourn) The Dr. & Nurse or the Pursers usually escort her for cocktails and dinner. If Miss A wrote a book it would indeed be a best seller! Before her husbands death he sailed Seabourn while being in a wheelchair ~she took such good care of him. I so admired her for being a wonderful wife and constant caretaker. Safe, fun fantastic sailings Martita B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Luxury Posted February 17, 2014 #17 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Mrs W is nearing 3000 days with Seabourn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martita B. Posted February 17, 2014 Author #18 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Miss A and her late husband sailed Silversea for many years before they switched to Seabourn ~yes, she will have 3,000 days aboard Seabourn ~wonder how many days she has actually been at sea? I was amused when I stopped by her "house" # 214 (on the Pride) one morning for coffee and made the ulimate boo boo ~~I sat on the edge at the end of her bed......Lordy, you'd thought I had dropped the black coffee on her laid out silk day outfit! We had sailed together for years and I certainly didn't realize no one was to mess up her brocaded bed throw ~~~her suite is perfection at all times along with her fresh white daylilies brightening the room. She enjoys her stuffed animals on the window ledge ~~her companions. I could write a novel as to our sailing adventures and "stunts!" MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martita B Martita, We were seated near Mrs. W at lunch one day and over heard Pierre (the Cruise Sales specialist) who was with her - along with an Officer - telling her she would have 3000 days before the end of the World Cruise. We also know, and are very fond of, Mr. & Mrs. C. - a lovely couple who also have many days on-board (look forward to meeting up with them again). It is my understanding that the days on-board record passes back and forth between the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martita B. Posted February 18, 2014 Author #20 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Nomads Mr & Mrs Cass are certainly favorites ~by guests & crews. We've sailed together for many years. Once on a Pride TA I recall I hosted a "Texas Dinner" in the card room for 13 guests ~ decorations, party favors, etc. During dinner, Mr Cass decided he wanted to be a Western rangler ~instead I gave him a Sheriff Badge! (The Captain and Staff Captain both wanted to be law enforcers as well)The same Transatlantic Mrs Cass enjoyed a big birthday ~~again, another festive dinner in the card room. Ohhhh those were truly, "the good 'ole days." What wonderful memories we all share! MB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
