+ Russ Krebs, W6HZJ, became a silent key on January 28. He was a past +
+ president of the PARC who served in 1973, the year we first put W6NWG/R +
+ on the air. Russ, who was retired, had suffered a heart attack several +
+ years ago, but had made a successful recovery. He was active in the Eye+
+ Bank net, and had been in recent good health. He will be missed by all +
+ of us who knew him. +
