I am saddened to hear this news, though as many have already said, it was not unexpected. It has been a pleasure and a privilege to be both a customer and a contact over this forum. SEMROC set a very high standard in customer service which very few businesses of any type can match.

Sheryl and Bruce (and all the other members of the family), I hope things continue to get brighter for all of you as time passes. It is still such a shock to our systems to lose Carl, and we aren't even family. I can only compare how it affected you to how the loss of my own dad changed my mom and me fifteen years ago. Wounds do heal, but you never forget. May the God of all tender mercies grant you peace.

Man, the website is getting hammered. I hope they see that as a small indication of how much they will be missed, not only personally but as relates to Semroc quality.

I echo Bob's sentiments. Semroc's arrival kicked me out of my rocketry hiatus. The Semroc family will be sorely missed. You set the bar for excellent products and customer service.

Bruce and Sheryl.

Thank you for all you've done for the hobby we love so much!

Your kits and parts are surpassed only by your friendliness and dedication.

I hope Bruce is enjoying the blanket that "The Vixen" made for him.

Good night and God bless.

Jeff and Mary Smith

Semroc is at the top in quality of product and customer service. Carl, Sheryl, and Bruce have always gone the extra mile for us and our hobby. Rocketry will not be the same without them and Semroc! A great vacancy will occur in the hobby when you close your doors.

My thanks for helping me recapture the excitement of my youth, not only in building the grand old models, but in waiting for the white Semroc box, just like I waited for the Estes package deliveries 43 years ago. You have my deepest gratitude, and I will really miss you.

I wish you nothing but the best in your future endeavors, whatever they may be!

As much as that saddens me, I appreciate the tough decision you had to make.

Thank you, Bruce, along with Sheryl and Carl. It had been a mighty fun ride.

All the best...

Thanks to the entire SEMROC family - you will be sincerely missed, both for your wonderful rockets and for the smile that was delivered with every one of them.

A quiet, but emphatic, "Thank You."

I will always be in your debt for all the help you gave me when I started my rocket
company. Please know that you will always be in our thoughts and prayers. What SEMROC
did for the rocket community, as well as for myself, will always be remembered and surely never matched.

Please take care and say "hey" every once in a while.

I miss you all and SEMROC already.
