Betsey it is with much regret that I must inform you of a loss of a fellow ARES volunteer and operator.  Mr. Chris Walters call sign N0HVK has passed away in the Kleen Energy Plant explosion yesterday. Chris was a SPARC member and gave much of his free time to special events and volunteer activities in the community through Amateur Radio. He will be missed.

Chris lived in Missouri and worked here in CT.
