At random: Coronation ceremonies of Emperor Alexander II of Russia in 1855 were enlivened by a submarine concert. Wilhelm Bauer, a Bavarian inventor, took three musicians under the waters of Kronstadt Harbor in a submarine he had built, where they played appropriate music during the coronation. The music was distinctly heard on the surface.

OGILVIE, Richard Douglas, 65,passed away unexpectedly Friday, July 21, 2017 while in Maine visiting family and friends. Known by many as Rich or Ogg, he was a truly legendary man who will be sorely missed. Raised in Kittery, Maine, where he made many life-long friends. Always up for an adventure - hitchhiking across the country (multiple times) and joining the Navy as a submariner to see the world. Returning to Kittery, Rich worked as a Rigger at PNSY and started a family. He thrived as a father, raising his two children with grit and work ethic, tough but just, and loved them fiercely. His primary goal as a father was to have his kids be better than the best version of himself. He was an active member of the community, coaching Kittery Rec Softball and Basketball, attending his children's sporting and school events. After retirement he moved to New Port Richey, Fla., where he made many new friends and reconnected with old friends. Rich enjoyed a daily routine that included a hot cup of joe with his local cohorts to solve the world's problems one sip at a time. Always willing to help out a friend in need and lend a listening ear. He loved traveling to tropical destinations with hot sunny beaches and ice cold drinks, reading novels and the local newspaper, working daily on crossword puzzles and giving unsolicited advice. Survived by his children, Alex Ogilvie and his partner Jenna Gorecki of Rye, N.H.; Elizabeth Ogilvie Pelletier and her husband Philip Pelletier and grandchildren Zoie and Zane of Wells, Maine; brothers, David Ogilvie (Carol Ogilvie) and Peter Ogilvie (Gail Ogilvie). He joins his parents David Ogilvie and Edith Mercer Ogilvie in the land of the remembered. Celebration of Life for Richard will be held Saturday, July 29, 2017 at Paddy's American Grille, 27 International Dr., Portsmouth, N.H. from 12 to 4 p.m. A casual attire party to share stories and laugh just like he always wanted. Online condolences may be made by visiting www.jspelkeyfuneralhome.com In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Kittery Recreation Department. Care for the Ogilvie family has been entrusted to the JS Pelkey Funeral Home. Published in Seacoastonline.com from July 23, 2017
