Bob Meeker's tenure as the Chaplain of our Naval Minewarfare Associaton came to a shocking and unexpected conclusion with his sudden passing on July 19. 2017. Exactly two months earlier Bob had been a driving force in the successful dedication of the NMA Memorial Plaque at the U.S. Navy Memorial in Washington, D.C.

Bob's wife Jean was also devoted to the NMA and both were instrumental in the Association's success.
