Re: Bill Sconce

[Ken D'Ambrosio]

Oh, what terrible news!  I still remember him for being a part of one of 
my daughter's high points: when she was six or so, she was completely 
fascinated with airplanes, so my wife -- ever the social organizer -- 
got a party for her down at a hanger at the Nashua airport, and the kids 
got to go up in pairs in a plane.  Not having been aware of Bill's 
aviation angle, I was completely surprised to find him there, and we had 
a most enjoyable chat.  An absolute blast was had by all; the kids loved 
all the plane stuff, and (I hope/think that) the staff enjoyed the kids 
with their wide-eyed awe.

Thanks, Maddog, for keeping us in touch on this.  He will be missed.

-Ken

I will miss Bill.  I first knew him in the mid-80's when he
participated in aerobatic competition with his C-150 Aerobat.  The
competition moved to a different airport and I didn't see him for
decades.  Later I found the python group and was caught off guard when
I saw a familiar name at the center of the action.  I had to send him
an email to confirm if he was the C-150 Aerobat "Bill Sconce" that I
had once known.

I will miss him and his quiet demeanor.

[GNHLUG] Annual Social at Lebanon Salt Hill Pub -- Jan 7, 2016

[Lloyd Kvam]

Salt Hill Pub - Lebanon
http://www.salthillpub.com/

Thursday, Jan 7, 6-8PM

Agenda

6:00  Eat, Drink, and be Merry!

Our annual social will be the January meeting of the
Dartmouth-Lake Sunapee Linux User Group at the Salt Hill Pub in
Lebanon.  Though the topic of conversation will inevitably flow
to some geeky topic or other, all are welcome, including
significant others.

We'll have a table reserved at Salt Hill in Lebanon for dinner
at 6PM.

There is copious free parking and easy Interstate access.  Plus,
the #1 request for our meetings has been beer, and Salt Hill has
plenty, albeit not "free, as in beer". And the iced tea is
plenty good too, so our younger and drier friends will find
plenty of good food and drink as well.

RSVP so we can get a table(s) of sufficient size.

I've told them to expect up to 20 people, but would like to be able to
give them a better estimate as the time gets closer.

GNHLUG family,

I just heard from Marnie MacLean that Bill Sconce has died.

Marnie says that Janet has had time to come to come to terms with Bill's death. 
 Again, if I hear any other news I will pass it along.

Warmest regards,

maddog
