My father best know as "Wink" WA8KOQ passed away on Wednesday, September 8th, 2021. He was a ham for 58 years and it was more than a hobby for him, it was his lifestyle. He was proud to be a ham and he influenced me to become a ham myself. My father, I know spoke to many of you out there and I am sure many of you will remember him and honor his memory. My dad was a wonderful man and his family will miss him dearly. In lieu of flowers the family would appreciate any donations to help with his final expenses.

I cannot fully express my deep sadness about my dear friend, Wink, becoming a Silent Key. On behalf of the many hams Wink worked throughout the years, I send my VY 73, and my deepest condolences to Wink's family. dit dit
