This from Marin "Buzz" Baiz's wife 1/23/15 pm
"Bill
Marin passed peacefully at home this evening 22:50 hours. We knew it would not take long. He has been through so much these past couple of months, and he courageously withstood it all, but I knew he was tired. He tried very hard to heal, but finally knew that he was dying. Please let DK know. I am sorry neither of you were able to see him one last time. Just know he loved you both.
Merry Gale"

Sorry to hear about Buzz. He was a hootch mate at Dong Ha in 1967.
RIP Buzz
