Hello all:
My Elmer, mentor, former neighbor and dear friend, Dr. Ben Buir, M.D. W0WW, passed away last year.
Ben transmitted from just South and East of Parker, Colorado, USA with pure Collins gear for many years. He lost his wife and moved to a more "city" area.
Ben worked in his medical field until he became a SK, just before his 90th birthday! What a fantastic man! He was working part time right up to within one week of his death. What a man!
He was there for anyone needing help.
Someday I'll meet Ben again. I look forward to that day!
If you talked with Ben you know what a great man he is.
I was asked to speak at his memoral. I did and ask you to think of him. Thanks, MIKE>>>>>> WD0FVV
