Martha,

 

Literally over decades, you and Tom were the core which held AMSAT together through the good times and the bad.  We were incredibly lucky that you brought your experience with Project Head Start to us, though I suspect we Rocket Scientists were often noisier, messier, and even more poorly behaved than your first group of toddlers.

 

73 and may you and John have a long, peaceful retirement,

 

Alan

Subject: [AMSAT-BB] Retirement

 

After 42 years as AMSAT Manager, I retired on December 31st.  During those years, I made friends, saw cutting edge technology developed, met John Glenn, Owen Garriott, Ron Parise and experienced the launch of many satellites including SuitSat.  I will miss my conversations with many of you and I'll miss the Organization which has been a big part of my life. I wish you all well and hope AMSAT will continue its goal of keeping amateur radio in space.

73- Martha
