"Hondorner" Passed away February 20

[rubysue]

Greetings to folks on this thread. I have sailed on the American Queen and Delta Queen (12 years ago) and knew that Don Horner ("Hondorner") was a fan of the American Queen, a knowledgable cruiser and very good at answering questions. Although I never met Don and his wife, I found out today, while looking at the Oceania Cruises board, that Don passed away on February 20 while on a world cruise on Insignia. This occurred while off the coast of east Africa. I am so sorry that his knowledge and kindness have passed from the world of cruising.

His thoughtful and thorough postings will be greatly missed.

 

My sympathy to his family.

Thanks, Rubysue, for letting us know. I have always enjoyed Mr. Horner's reviews and advice and would have been puzzled if they suddenly stopped. He will be greatly missed by those of us on this board. I never met him, but judging from his participation here I am sure he was a great guy. My sympathy to his family.
