Even if I was too tired to join the class, I came on air to tell him that I was listening, just to kept him company. Most of his students did the same to show respect.

I will also miss his early morning chats normally with 9M2AU.<BR/><BR/>He was the only ham operator that I have met face to face and had shown me his Yaesu 5R.
