Fire Buff / Historian / Firepixer Rusty Gill passes away unexpectedly

[Roto-Ray]

With a heavy heart I pass along the death of Rusty Gill (Firepics ID: Ed Freen) who passed away suddenly and unexpectedly while on a trip with his sons.  No arrangements have been made at this time.

 

With the passing of Rick Rudisill, Curt Elie, and now Rusty, our hobby and history have certainly suffered some major losses this year.

 

I'll update this thread as information is passed along.  Assistant Chief Defina of MWAA has been in contact with the Gill family and initially let many in the hobby know of Rusty's passing.
