"The Purple Foxes"
(HMM/VMM-364)

Obituary

We sadly announce that Dave Magee passed away peacefully at home on 26 March 2020. In addition to his service to the country as a United States Marine during Vietnam, he was also responsible for preserving the history of HMM-364 by serving as the second administrator of the website after its founder, Frank Gulledge, passed. Dave also organized many of the "Dog" and Purple Fox reunions over the years in Mesquite, NV.

Dave served 22 years as a Marine after joining at the young age of 17.

In lieu of flowers the family request donations be made to the Semper Fi Fund.
A memorial service will be planned at a later time. Updates will be posted on this FaceBook page.
Condolences may be sent to the family at Myers Mortuary.
To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of David Lane Magee, please visit Myer's floral store.

Semper Fi, Dave

(We will post further information as we receive it.)

DATE: September 24-27, 2020
LOCATION: Holiday Inn Resort on the Beach, Galveston, TX
HOSTS: Jesse Ruby, Earling Rolfson

It is officially our 50th anniversary when we served at Marble (1969/70) and we have invited our sister squadron HMM 364 to join us. Jesse and Earling are planning a great schedule of events at this beach resort, so we hope all can join us. BTW, Peter and Rae Goetz will be joining us from Australia and the Colonel is traveling with Dunc to TX. How about you?

JESSE HAS A SPECIAL REQUEST: HE HAS TO RESERVE AND GUARANTEE ROOMS, SO HE NEEDS TO GET SOME IDEA OF WHO IS PLANNING TO ATTEND. PLEASE SEND YOUR RESPONSE TO: jruby532@yahoo.com

There are only 3 choices: YES, I am attending. NO, I am not attending. MAYBE.

This will help Jesse know how many rooms to reserve more accurately. If we cannot get enough responses or requests for rooms, the number of reserved rooms will have to be lowered. Once they are booked by us, we may run out of rooms. We are currently looking at 20-25 rooms.
