It’s with great sadness that we share the news of another SK. Bill Silva aka. “Colusa Bill” (KA6FKK) passed away on September 20th due to complications from a stroke.
From dialing around 40M to hearing him participate on our weekly net, that BIG voice was unmistakable. Being the sole caretaker of his mom, it was hard for Bill to attend many events. He made a special trip to Hamfest in Loomis last March to meet me and it was great to put a face with the voice. 🙂
Bill’s voice, laugh, and calm demeanor will certainly be missed. If I hear about a celebration of life, I’ll make sure to share the information here.
