    I moved away from Pensacola in 2002 and my two friends, WA4SRW and KE4FSC whom I had spent many hours with on Conrad’s repeater. We talked into the wee hours, laughing and cutting up.

    Conrad and Don Sams were in their 70’s and a couple of great guys. They both passed away unbeknown to me but I will always remember them.

    The family should know how they were appreciated by a friend.
