John Conley - Commodore Emeritus IS SAILING IN HEAVEN
Conley, Brendan <bconley@macleanpower.com>To:bob@armbrusterco.com,rwienke@comcast.net,thorsail@att.net,youngrun@sbcglobal.net,rmieling@sbcglobal.netSat, Apr 11 at 8:36 PMI am sending this email with sad news for the Chicago RC Model Yacht Club family…..
On Thursday 4/9, my Dad (John) passed away, suddenly. He was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer of the stomach and liver approximately 1 month ago. He started a very aggressive treatment regimen on 3/25. As expected he fell very ill from side effects on 4/2. On 4/6 his condition deteriorated to a point where he required hospitalization. It was at that point we discovered he had developed an abdominal infection that had gone septic into his blood stream. He spent the next few days in the ICU. The medication required to elevate his blood pressure and allow him to stay alive was exceeding what his heart could handle. That last three days allowed my Dad to spend great time with myself and my older brother (Sean). He was awake and 100% himself. Great sense of humor and full control of his mental faculties. On Wednesday, after realizing that death was inevitable, he chose to control his own destiny and ceased the heart medication. He died peacefully at 230am on 4/9 with family by his side.
I have attached a link to the funeral home and obituary.

The Chicago RC Model Yacht Club was a huge part of his life, as you can see by the parts of this basement dedicated to his boats and awards. My brother and I will keep some of his boats as fond remembrances, but we will likely reach out at a later date to see how best to pass on some of the additional items that might benefit the Yacht Club and some new members. I am not sure how COVID-19 is impacting the club’s events, but let me know if he had anything vital to the running of events, such as signage, etc.
