USS Underhill Family, It is with deep regrets that after giving serious thought and consideration to our reunion/memorial service for July 24, that we will have to cancel it this year for the first time since we began the reunions. The reason is obvious due to the Corona virus. The majority of our attendees are senior citizens and people who must travel from out of state and must deal with conditions where hotels or restaurants may not even be available. Paula
