They beat me to it!

Got this from @NorthwesternPR ... I live about an hour from Seattle and one of the places I like to go and also the place where the F/V Sea Star docks in the summer and offers tours, is Seattle's Fisherman's Terminal... There they have the Fisherman's Memorial, dedicated to the fallen fishermen...

Captain Phil Harris - F/V Cornelia Marie (Deadliest Catch)

My thoughts and prayers are with Captain Phil Harris, his family, and friends in this tough time. I had the lucky opportunity to meet Phil several times and he is a great guy! Most recently I saw him back in September 2009 during a coffee promo for his coffee line, Captain's Reserve... Great coffee :D

Updated 8:20pm 1/30/2010 ~ Will update when I get more info...
