Month: April 2023

Silent Key – KM4RYN

Posted on April 25, 2023May 2, 2023 By Michael M
Announcements

Note: There will be a celebration of life on June 10th. For more information click here.

It is with great sadness I make this announcement of the passing of one of our own.

Late last night, Kevin (KM4RYN) became a silent key.

Kevin touched so many lives. He will be remembered and missed by many. We will dedicate tomorrow’s meeting to him, and we will be suspending the business portion of our monthly meeting tomorrow, replacing it with a remembrance of Kevin. It will be a celebration of his life, and the lives that he touched. Everyone who wishes to say something in memory of Kevin will have an opportunity.

If you wish to write something, you may do it here, and when we have the arrangements, we will post it here – Kevin’s Passing – WPBARG Forums

Kevin’s obituary is at the AllCounty funeral home Click Here
This is where you can share a memory of Kevin. If you are so inclined, it would be nice to list memories of Kevin.

On behalf of the West Palm Beach Amateur Radio Group, we extend our deepest condolences to his family and loved ones.
