Eunice "mommed" me at Minden Wave Camp when I showed up to help and learn. Gave me extra blankets for my tent, washed my hair in her big salad bowl of warm water on the ramp, knit me one of her beanie caps, which I still treasure.
She and Norma dropped my jaw regularly with strings of wild "there we went" stories. And their hearts were as wide as the West.

I still bury Mike in huge sister hugs, whenever we cross paths.

She's smiling and making things better further on down our path. Love to you, Mike.

If I recall properly (Mike you can confirm) I remember seeing you guys camped out at Minden. I think your dad was flying a libelle at that time. You guys had a pop up tent that was mounted on top of your crew car. You kids were all real young. I would talk to your mom and dad as they cooked breakfast on their tailgate. I remember wondering how you all fit in that thing every night lol.

Those were good times. We provided the c180 doing the towing out there before soar minden or pasco became active at Minden. It was Marcel Goudinat (libelle) Carl Herald (asw12), Walt Cannon (libelle) and at times JJ . That was about it. Later-on Minden became a whole lot more popular when pasco started up the wave camp.
