[ADXA] K5CKS SK

[Bill Priakos]

What a loss; Rory always had a smile, never complained, always ready to help with a technical question, knew FT8 WELL 😊 We had a great time on our 147.51 simplex “DX paging frequency”(used since 1959) chasing new ones and 6 meter openings - Rory was a mainstay with K5JUC, W5JE, me and others.  He will be missed!  RIP….

73, Bill

Thank you for the update, Jay. Very sad news indeed. Always had good interchanges with Rory and he helped me a lot. Had fun sharing spots together. He checked a good number of cards for me also. Will be missed.

Praying for his family.

The below is some very sad news off the FSAARC Facebook page. I knew this was a possibility, but I was pretty much in a state of denial.  He was a good friend and I enjoyed being around Rory. He will be missed!  73 Jay/w5jay


Sad news -  just received word That Rory Bowers K5CKS just passed away.  Please pray for his Family.  Will update when I have more information.
