Chapter 602 Meeting
Good morning all, Apologies for the late reminder. We will have our first chapter meeting of the year this Tuesday, January 28, at 7 pm at C&R. Gather for eats and catching up at 6 or so. Also, we got a very late start on discussing chapter elections last year, which are now a bit overdue. The position of President will be open, however if you're interested in becoming VP, Treasurer, Secretary, or a member of the board, throw your hat in the ring! We will use the January meeting to determine when we want to take the vote (to give people enough time to consider and form a slate). See you all soon, Ed Z

Roger Johnson passing
4
All, As some of you have no doubt heard, Roger Johnson passed away last friday. A Celebration of Life will be held for Roger on January 4th 2025, at 11 AM at the Fulmont Community Church in Gloversville. Hopefully some of the 602 members who knew Roger can attend, I am sure the Johnson family would appreciate it. Obituary below (thanks for sharing this Darryl): Roger Neal Johnson, 83 (1941 - 2024), embarked on an eternal adventure on December 13, 2024, surrounded by family. He leaves behind his wife of 61 years, Doris Anne (Diakun) Johnson; five children: Christopher (Abigail), Kimberly (Thomas) Bonafede, Todd (Jeannie), Sara (the late David) Palmateer, and Amy (Travis) Teale; ten grandchildren: Alista, Michael, Ashley, Zachary, Dakota, Chase, Jesse, Charley, Wyatt, and Ayla; and one great-granddaughter, Ariana. Roger was a graduate of Clarkson University (BS) and RPI (MS). As a design engineer for GE Research and Development, he was awarded 20 patents as co-inventor. He was a small plane pilot and an owner of two antique autos. Roger tutored many children in math and took many children up for their first plane ride through the EAA Young Eagles Program. He was also a deacon, church bus driver, and Sunday school teacher for various area churches. Roger was a member of Fulmont Community Church in Gloversville where he rang the ancient church bell every Sunday with his helpers, Mac and Stella.

At the last meeting we discussed club photos... Thinking about it... While I don't have the club's complete history... I do have the pictures that I have taken since becoming a member. It may take me a while to add them to my web page... but I have made a small start.. My web page: https://www.rebedard.com/RayB_EAA602/index_1.htm Now has a section with pictures from 2021. The Poker Run, My Glider ride with Tim, a Piseco Breakfast, and a 602 meeting at Fulton county... When I have time, (hahaha--good intentions) I'll add some from earlier years.. RayB...

After a great event on the 28th and all the great pics that Wanita shared on facebook... I just wondering if I should share my pics to Facebook instead of creating web pages... It just seems that Facebook seems to be more officially EAA602 than my little world... Thoughts ? RayBedard
