Loretta EnsorA pioneer in the field of amateur radio, the longtime operator of the family farm and an avid collector of stamps and postcards, Loretta Ensor, W9UA, packed a whole lot of life into her 87 years in this world.
It was 30 years ago this month that Loretta, her body by then crippled by the effects of arthritis, left us to join her older brother Marshall and her parents Jacob and Ida in the Great Beyond where every "CQ" results in an immediate contact and propagation is never an issue.
To mark the occasion, our club will be holding a special event at Olathe's Ensor Park and Museum, 18995 W. 183rd Street, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, September 11.
