This is sad to hear. I have visited with Dee at the AMSAT Symposiums the last few years regarding ARISS/school contacts. We will all miss him and the way he helped to promote AMSAT. My condolences to his wife, Ginny and family.

Dee Interdonato, NB2F died on April 8th. He was a long time Area Coordinator for NJ. Not only did he handle the booth at many NJ hamfests throughout the year but was also an invaluable help at Dayton. Several years ago, we needed help at the Greater Baltimore Hamboree& Computerfest. Dee and his wife,Ginny, drove down and worked the booth for 2 days.I could always count on him to"elmer " any new ham who had technical questions. Before retiring, Dee was the supervisor of the Radio Shop of the Port Authority of NY/NJ. He was a member of ANJRPC, BARA, Bergen County CERT, AMSAT and the Treasurer of BC FM Association. His funeral will be on Friday at 9:00 AM at Santangelo Funeral Home, 300 N Main St, Lodi NJ .
