GM folks,
Thanks to John and Paul for their?getting a contact for Gordon's wife.
I too will be making a donation.? I hope others may find it in their hearts and 
situations to help also.

Scott, KB4KBS, was going to fill in for Gordon on the write up section of GQP.
He has now stepped forward to manage the 1x1 award.?? 
The GEORGIA award will be rededicated to Gordon and Jim Rowe.
Scott has new web info to publish, after the holidays.
I will give Scott all the help he needs for logs and verification.

I think NY4N has applied for a 1x1 too... updates to pages when Joan and I get 
back to GA from holiday visits to the kids.

All the updates when we get home... Dec 29/30

73
Mike

Hello everyone:? I had a phone conversation with Paul Newberry, N4PN 
this evening.? He has been trying to help the widow of Gordon Rowe, 
K4OD, formerly known as John Rowe, WB4MUR.? Gordon was the brother of 
Jim Rowe, K4BK, formerly K4FXU of Warner Robins, GA and Jacksonville, 
FL, a SECC member who died about two years ago.? Gordon was a great 
supporter of SECC, SEDXC, and the Georgia QSO Party.? He was a former 
Fort Valley, GA police officer, who had been in bad health and in a 
wheel chair.? Gordon had come up with the idea to celebrate the 50th GQP 
with one by one calls used to spell out G-E-O-R-G-I-A.? This was to be 
in memory of his late brother Jim and Mike, NE4S, says that it will now 
be in memory of both Rowe brothers.

Paul reports that the Rowes had just been getting by financially and 
Gordon had no health or life insurance.? She will get nothing from 
Gordon's Social Security or retirement since her Social Security was 
higher than his was.? Faye has no money for the funeral expenses.? Paul 
is going to inventory his radio equipment for her and will trying to get 
a fair price for what equipment he had.? He will be posting a list when 
he has finished the inventory.

Paul has helped Faye set up an account at a bank in Macon.? I am sending 
a check tomorrow.? Anyone else who would like to can send a check made 
payable to Faye Rowe and send it c/o Leslie Carnegie, State Bank and 
Trust Co., 3945 Pio Nono Avenue, Post Office Box 4748, Macon, GA? 31208.

Thanks for your consideration.? 73, John, K4BAI.

Charles (K4GK):? Could you send this information to the GSN e-mail 
list?? Thanks.
