Cruising the Caribbean Leaves Lifelong Memories

David Lipsky, along with his parents and sister, enjoyed holiday cruises on the SS United States in 1966, 1967, and 1968. The family was booked for the 1969 trip as well, and they were devastated when the ship was laid up that November and their yearly tradition would be no more.
