>> We wanted to let you know, Martie Stevenson passed away on October 11, 2018 in La Quinta, CA surrounded by her loving family. As many of you know, Martie had MSA (Multiple System Atrophy). This disease is related to Parkinson’s but the symptoms present themselves differently. She put up a valiant effort and remained strong up to the very end.

>> As an organ donor, Mom always supported learning and research. In honoring her beliefs, we are deeply comforted with the decision to donate her brain to science through Cure PSP. We also ask in lieu of flowers, donations be made to CurePSP (Progressive Supranuclear Palsy). Cure PSP, https://www.psp.org/iwanttohelp/ways-to-give/ is a research program in conjunction with the Mayo Clinic that provides much needed research, awareness, education, care, and hopefully a cure for prime of life brain diseases such as MSA, Parkinson’s and ALS.

>> Many have asked about service details, per her wishes, there will be no services. We will honor her in other ways. Thank you for being such great friends to our parents over the years. The three of us have experienced firsthand the love and friendships you had and heard many stories of the fun adventures our parents experienced with many of you.

I just received this from Rich Banks. Dick

I recently received the notification from Joe’s daughter, Cathy, that Joe pass away on September 15th. There will be a memorial service at the Sun Valley Episcopal Church on October 13 2PM.
I will ask Cathy to forward me a copy of Joe’s obituary so I can pass it along to all.

Ladies and Gents,

I have been gently corrected concerning the luncheon price.

Those of you who have been attending will remember that the cost was NOT $20!

 

LUNCH, INCLUDING TAX AND GRATUITY IS $28.00

It IS WORTH IT!

Mea Culpa

See you and 22 others tomorrow.

Our speaker for Thursday, 19 July is Tom Gehman who will talk about his experiences in the A4 Skyhawk.

Ken Koster has told me that Dr. Rich Sugden, CDR, USN, Retired said he knows of Tom and would like to hear what he has to say

but, that he can’t attend.   He expressed a desire to have someone video Tom’s presentation and send it to him.

I suppose anyone could do that with their smart phone and the share it through an attachment to an email.

Any volunteers?

If so email me at pjbro5790@att.net

BTW, Dr. Sugden owns The Teton Air Museum.

Check out the rich array of beautiful ($$$$) aircraft at :

Thanks,
