I am sad to report that Vant K4LM passed away today shortly after noon.  

I went to his Hospice room at the Palm Beach Gardens Medical Center to visit
with him, his wife, sister and two daughters.  

We had a good visit for about 2 hours.  He was comfortable and awake, though
he could not talk.  He did recognize me and responded with small smiles as
we talked and joked. 

Several other relatives showed up and I figured I would take my leave, with
all of them crowding into the hospice room. 

During my 1+ hour drive back to my home his daughter called me to tell me
that he had passed away.  

He is up with all the good Contesters and DXers now. 

73 My Friend.  RIP
