[Boatanchors] [Johnson] Loss of a great Johnson Restorer

[Todd, KA1KAQ]

We knew it was coming, but that doesn't make it any less sad or
sobering. I was fortunate to speak with Dee numerous times over the
years, most recently on 40 meters a couple weeks back. He sounded
upbeat, as someone had recently gotten his aerial back up in the air
so he could operate.

He will be missed by many, for his friendly nature as well as his work
restoring old gear.

TNX for posting, Peter.

He was known for those great Johnson Cabinets and Panels that he made look like they were new.  He was a good friend to many of us and will be missed.  Funeral services are being arranged.
