EAU Tower opening

It's been many moons ago... but didn't EAU "used" to have a tower? I swear
when I was doing my student cross countries back in the '80s that I flew
into EAU and the tower was operational. Or am I confusing it with the FSS
that used to be at EAU? Anybody have a better memory than mine?

BTW, isn't Duffy a real gem?! While we had our annual done on the Aztec at
MFI he was simply a dynamo... one day I saw him on/in 4 different vehicles
within 4 hours. He rode into the hanger on a motorcycle, left in a car,
came back in a 182 that he had just purchased and then drove off on a
tractor. The man is simply everywhere... and he's over 70 years old.

EAU had a FSS prior to FSS consolidation, never had a control tower.

He's 76, but if you didn't know that you'd probably guess him to be at least
ten years younger.
