My Father, George Pannell, passed away this week after a courageous battle with cancer. Like us, he had hoped AND devised a plan to fight the horrible disease. And fight he did. A lot of his fighting spirit came from growing up in the suburbs of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and as a U.S. Navy Submarine Warfare qualified Sailor.

The Problem:

Coming of age in a steel town during the Vietnam War

The Hope:

Choosing his own path in life would provide a better outcome

The Plan:

Leave Aliquippa and join the U.S. Navy

The Solution:

Became an Enlisted Submarine Warfare qualified U.S. Navy Petty Officer and moved into the Nuclear Power industry

I was fortunate to record this discussion in June 2023 and dive deeper into the stories I heard growing up. Please join me in honoring him by listening to his story.

I love you, Dad,

Kevin
