It’s with great sadness I report that Scott (K6SLY) has passed. Active in SFARC with a love for off-roading and Hams In The Hills, Scott will truly be missed by MANY. The sudden loss of Scott is a reminder that time is not infinite, every day is a gift.
When we learn more about Scott’s memorial services, we’ll pass the information along.
