Default A Very Sad Weekend At Our Home
I hope this is the correct forum to put this in.

We got word Saturday morning that my nephew had been killed when the plane he was piloting in Alaska crashed.
California pilot dies in crash | APRN
Shaun was one of the greatest guys I have ever known. He was genuine through and through. He was way too young. He died doing what he loved best! In 2002, he took one of my daughters and I for a plane ride as a Christmas gift. I will never forget it. He was definitely one of the good guys!!
This Shaun and my wife in the fall of 2007:


This is Shaun and his Super Cub. (I did not take these 2 pictures)




If you want to see some great Photography, please take a look here:
Due Up

This is Shaun's adventures last summer.

patterfr, you are so right!

Thanks so much for the comments each and every one of you. You are all a great bunch of people!! Life is just so fragile. The older I get, the more of a reality this becomes. Tell those that you love, that you do, because you just never know what will happen.

Ron
