From the USS Arizona.org site.
The ship's 2016 reunion will be held December 1-9, 2016, in Hawaii (the 75th anniversary of the attack).
The Hilton Hawaiian Village Resort will serve as the host.
Currently five of the six remaining survivors will be attending.
Now, of course, there are just five survivors. I don't know if Mr. Haerry was one of the ones planning to attend.

My Cooter's History Blog has become about 80% World War II anyway, so I figured to start a blog specific to it, especially since we're commemorating its 70th anniversary and we are quickly losing this "Greatest Generation." The quote is taken from Pearl Harbor survivor Frank Curre, who was on the USS Tennessee that day. He died Dec. 7, 2011, seventy years to the day. His photo is below at right.
