SPAR in Connecticut
July 29th, 2014
Revised August 15, 2014
Sixteen of us and one guest got together and, as usual, had a very nice visit and lunch at Chuck's Steak House in Danbury CT. Attending were Hal Bemis, Ed & Anita Bouvier, Bob & Sabine Gibson, Ken Kahn, Don & Evelyn King, Carol Koliger, Christl Mathis & Dennis Quick, Pat Palette, Joe Smoltz, Fred & Tokiko Thorp, Nick Tramontano, and Ken Eckstein, a Flying Tigers/Northwest/Delta pilot who, through a variety of coincidences and the remarkably small world of aviation, knows Nick, Hal, Pat, the Gibsons, and Ken Kahn.
