Earlier today

Betty Jean and I took our first vacation together to Lake George when we worked at Moog. In fact, we had so much fun, we went a second time. Then, as life happens, we lost touch with each other but I often thought about her. I´m very sad to read of her passing and I send my heartfelt thoughts to all who knew and loved her. I will always think of her as my friend.
