    Sorry to have to record the death of one of our great DXers - Cedric Rourke, CT3FT (formerly GI3IVJ.) Some members have probably worked him at some time or other. Lovely man, well into his 80s, but was still seeking out the two or three remaining entities he needed when he died earlier this week. He also maintained regular skeds with his friends back home in GI. See his QRZ.com entry. - Stewart - GI4OCK

    Damn, and only worked him again last week.

    We met in Friedrichshafen a few years ago.

    R.I.P Cedric

    Sad news indeed. I must have dozens of QSOs with him in the log. Always a gentleman and always ready to stop and chat.
    RIP Cedric

    My Condolences.

    I thought the call looked familiar, I worked Cedric twice last year on 17m, sent him a QSL Card and SAE and a few dollars,
    and got a QSL Card back really quick, from the first time we worked on 17m.

    My Sympathy to all who knew this Fine Gentleman.
