Hi!
I saw this on the ARRL web site this afternoon:
http://www.arrl.org/news/view/wilse-morgan-wx7p-ex-kl7cq-sk
I worked Wilse many times between 2006 and 2011 on the satellites (my last QSO with him was logged in late April 2011), and he was the only station I ever worked from his home grid DN08. I saw him at Dayton a couple of times in that period working at the AMSAT booth.
The Spokane DX Association has an article about his passing on its home page:
and a separate page specifically about him:

Wilse was a great guy and an old school Amateur Radio legend. I met him in Alaska when his call was KL7CQ. He sold me his beloved S-Line!
God bless you, Wilse!
