[OKDXA] W7FG SK

[Jay Bromley]

This one is hard to believe, I remember working on a cell site in Bartlesville and Gary bought some co-workers out to see the site.  All white shirt guys with pocket protectors

Later I remember hauling a huge plate and mod transformer over to his house for his homebrew rig.  
He never did get over the death of his son.

Gezz this hits hard!  I also found out this week another friend died last year without knowing he was sick.  We worked together in Television, life is too short!

  Dang . .  We've lost too many already. We had OKDXA meetings at Gary's house in our early days. 
  Sure sorry to learn of this. Likewise Coy's resignation as Div Dir. The rest of you guys/gals stay 
  with us please.  vy 73, Ross K5RH

  Worked Gary from Ken Adams place a couple of weeks back and had met him a 
  time or two.

  Sorry to hear of his passing and I am sure many will miss him.
