Daniel C. Irving

I have been friends with Danny, W3JMH since we met at SHHS in 1955. We studied and passed our Amateur Radio licenses in 1956. Danny had to transfer to BMHS while I remained at SHHS until we graduated in 1959.
We enjoyed building radio kits and studying and communicating with others around the world via Voice and Morse code.

He has been a big part of my life for the past 53 years and he will be deeply missed.
