Sad ending to San Diego Public Service Event

On Sunday, 26 hams were working as Communicators for our I Love A
Clean San Diego Beach cleanup. All dedicated people. One ham, like
many others, has been at everyone of the cleanups since we began
providing communications almost 10 years ago. This day would be
different though. This day, we lost a friend. Walt Davis, WA6ODQ was
working the event at Dog Beach, and some time during the event he
became a silent key.


We became aware of this after the event, when
Walt failed to check in with the events results. After sending
another ham to check on Walt, we found out the sad news.



Walt passed
away, doing what he loved most, ham radio, and public service!! Walt
will be sorely missed thru out the San Diego ham community. In memory
to Walt, I invite you to send me some brief comments about your
feelings towards Walt, and I will compile them, and present them to
his family at a later date.


Thanks much Walt, we will miss you. Best 73.
