Comments: So sad to receive notice that Master Chief Navy Counselor Todd A Pike has passed away. Todd was a great shipmate, dedicated to his job and love of the Navy deeply. He worked with me when I was the Command Career Counselor for NMCB 62, just prior to my retirement. I knew Todd would go on to greater things, and he did. I'm proud to have served with him, and I was proud to have him as my friend.
