It is with a heavy heart that I inform you of Fred Ellsworth's Flight West.

He made his takeoff on 28 December 2016.

His service will be at 1100 on 9 January 2017 at Davis Mortuary located at 6200 S. Eastern Ave. .

The NWA pilots have much to be thankful for Fred's work on Council 54 during some of the dark days of our careers.

Personally, I have lost a very dear friend and sponsor for my membership in The Quiet Birdmen.

Would you please notify RNPA of Fred's trip West? I'd appreciate it very much.

Aloha,

Lee Ozawa
