[Elecraft] Fredrick Cady SK

[Vic DiCiccio]

I'm very sad to confirm Todd's post: Fredrick Cady, KE7X, emeritus 
professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Montana State 
University, died this morning in Denver.  The cause was heart failure 
and related complications. He was born May 2, 1942.  I'm sure Todd or I 
will post a fuller obituary or link when one is available.

Fred was my very dear friend and an important mentor for me. Working 
with him to write the Successful Ham book was a joy.  He helped so many 
people as a professor, author of his books, and in his role as a 
volunteer fireman, fire chief and deputy chief.  He will be deeply missed.
