Past ARRL CTO Paul Rinaldo, W4RI, SK
Longtime ARRL staffer and Washington-area office chief Paul Rinaldo, W4RI, died Friday, November 29, at age 88. Paul was ARRL's first Chief Technology Officer, serving from 2004-2010. Paul's contributions to amateur radio, notably including his pioneering work in packet radio, were numerous and will certainly be memorialized fully and eloquently by others in coming days. Celebration of life services are set for 11-noon on Monday, December 9, at Murphy Funeral Home, 1102 West Broad St, Falls Church VA. A gathering follows at the funeral home from noon-2. 73,Brennan Price, N4QXAMSAT Secretary
My condolences to the family, it is hard to see our fellow HAM’s going away and a generation being swept out slowly but surely (its life and logical but still hard to see).
73

It is so sad that we have lost two well known ham radio operators recently. I used to work with Paul Rinaldo (W4RI) when he was with ARRL and also Larry Price (W4RA) with IARU. Here is one of the pictures showing from left Larry Price, Paul's wife, Paul Rinaldo, and me at 1993 World Radiocommunications Conference in Geneva. RIP Paul and Larry. George N3GS

George if you attached a picture I don't see it. The mailing list software may have stripped it. Consider uploading it to Imgur or some similar service and pasting the link.
