Ed Arini, a good friend and fellow modeler, was quietly extraordinary. Beyond his engineering interests and skills, he was a student of many phases of maritime history. But more important than that, he was a most generous human being. No one was more unselfish with his time and helpfulness. We can credit Linda for the same. As a pair they were recognized by all who know them as especially kind. He was active in his professional life and as much so in his hobbies. He lived life fully and accorded his fellow man respect and even affection. If you are on the water when a tugboat goes by, you discover that even though it moves at a only moderate speed, it leaves a big wake. So did Ed Arini.
