[TVARC] RIP Tom Grosvenor, NV1U

[John Ellis]

I remember when he first came to a meeting.
I went up and introduced myself, he was very
quiet and reserved. After one or two more
meetings, he volunteered to head up Radio
on the Square. And everybody helped out
and next thing you know, he's meeting all
the members and getting to know everyone.

It shows that you get out of a Club, what you
put in. Tom put a lot out and he made a lot of
friends because of it. He will be missed. 73
Tom.

73,
John, NP2B
