Our condolences to Pamela and her family upon the death of her father. Our son Vince dated Pamela for 9 nine yrs. and Pamela is like a daughter-in-law to us. Vince was very fond of Tom because they shared a love of aviation. At least now they are together and can enjoy flying in its highest form. Our prayers are with you Pamela, and your family.
