[OKDXA] VK9NS - SK

[Jay Bromley]

Hi Bert,
Yes indeed that is very sad news!!!  I didn't know he was getting weak, but just a few months ago I need some help in getting a card.  He told me he had the logs put up and it might take a few weeks, but to go ahead and send the card he would do his best.  I sent the card and got one back.  I didn't know him well, but sure appreciated his efforts!!

  Please pass on to interested parties I am sorry if I have not included everyone:
  It is with deep sadness that I inform you that Jim (VK9NS) passed peacefully away on Norfolk Island at 15:40 local time on 10 February 2009 after a short illness.

  Jim is survived by his wife Kirsti (VK9NL) and his four children: Bruce (G3HSR), Stuart, Sheena and Fraser (all living in the UK).

  Jim's contribution to Amateur Radio, DX-ing and IOTA is inestimable. He will be sadly missed.

  Further information and condolences can be sent to Kirsti at jimkirsti at ni.net.nf
  Bruce (G3HSR)v
