So sad to hear about Townie passing, I worked with him at San Onofre ,Palo Verde and STP.
He always had a good word to say and plenty of interesting stories.
The story I remember best is he said he was 19 years old and working at La Costa  Country Club near San Dieogo as a Bellhop meeting Hollywood's Celebs like John Wayne and Dean Martin, then he got drafted into the Army and was being shot at in Vietnam a couple months later.
Helluva a culture shock!
RIP Townie.
