The Wisconsin Maritime Museum is remembering one of its most dedicated volunteers.
The museum has announced that Mark Becker, a former submariner and tour guide for the USS Cobia, passed away last week.
Museum staff says Mark and his wife, Laurie, came from Chicago and retired in Two Rivers after numerous visits.
In Becker’s service khakis, he was ready to share the history of Cobia and his own experience.
The Wisconsin Maritime Museum says Cobia was always on Becker’s mind, and he wanted to make sure everyone who visited her was immersed in the years of active service during World War II.
The museum concludes by saying his staff and fellow volunteers will deeply miss his presence, but his years of devotion will not be forgotten.
