Condolences for the Blas Family

John Torres Blas, 1937-2017

The USCG Auxiliary Guam extends its deepest condolences and sympathies to the family of USCG Auxiliarist John Torres Blas.  He was a member of the Guam Flotilla 140-02-24 since 1995.  Blas left this Earth on November 13, 2017 at the age of 80.  He was active in our Operations for many years.  

Fellow Auxiliarists may pay final respects to Blas on Friday, November 24, 2017 at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church in Santa Rita, from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.  A mass of Christian Burial will be offered at 12:00 noon and his remains will be interred in the Veterans Cemetery in Piti following the service.

We will miss you, John.  Fair winds and following seas.  You will always be remembered.  May you rest in peace.
