[Elecraft] KE7X, Fred Cady, silent key

[Clay Autery]

I hate to hear this.  He was a great asset to the hobby, and a nice 
man.  I never met him in person, but when I was BRAND NEW to 
Elecrafting, Fred took the time to answer all my questions... good and 
bad and I'm sure frustrating.  He never missed a beat or showed any 
hesitancy to help.  He even chatted with me on the phone once for a long 
time to make sure I had things straight.

He will be greatly missed.  I will be praying for his family. :-(
