Chet wanted to have some lucky person win this copy of the Amateur Radio Handbook, but he wanted it to go to someone new to the hobby. So we held a drawing for only hams who have recently been licensed. The lucky winner was Jim, seen here with Chet. Congratulations Jim, and thank you Chet for donating this handbook.
Please contact Patrick at patrickboneil@juno.com if you are interested in helping with this worthy cause.

BEATRICE F. JOHNSON, 81
LAKELAND – Beatrice F. Johnson, age 81, born 3/6/32 in Rochester NY, passed 2/11/14 at the Lakeland Regional Medical Center from heart failure.
Bea was an accomplished quilter and active in both The Feather Princes and the Ladies of the Lakes Quilt Guilds. She was a loving wife to William over the past, all too short, thirty-seven years. Once asked about her goal in life, she replied “to leave this world a little better than she found it.” This she did! She will be sorely missed.
Survivors include husband William [Bill, KI4ZMV], sons Stephen and Michael, stepson William H. Johnson, III, and sister Margery.
A celebration of life service will be held Saturday March 22 for family and friends. In lieu of flowers, please perform some unselfish random act of kindness with Bea in mind. She would love that.

Please join me in offering condolences and prayers to ease the grieving of those who are struggling with the void left by Bea’s passing.
