|
|
It is my sad duty to report that earlier this week, Joseph A Roth, a 17 year member of the museum passed away from a heart attack. Funeral arrangements are incomplete as of this writing, but they are being handled by a funeral parlor in Corona, Queens, New York.
Yesterday we got word that former President Don Engel passed away yesteerday AM. Details are also scarce. Don had been in a rehab center in NJ recovering from a broken hip.
May they both rest in peace |

Condolences to both of their families. Joe was one of my instructors during operator's training; he was a very smart and funny person. Don, I believe, was a founding member and served as President for many years.
Both will be remembered for their decades of service and will be missed. |
