>> Hello Friends,
>> Our long time member and friend, Colonel Frank Borman, passed this Tuesday at age 95.  A graduate of West Point, a fighter pilot, Test Pilot at Edwards, Mission Commander of Gemini 7 and Apollo 8, the first flight to the moon, Colonel Borman had a storied and legendary career.  A staunch advocate of general aviation and especially the Experimental Aircraft Association, nationally and locally, Colonel Borman's generosity and support transformed our Chapter.  His support of our Chapter's Educational STEM programs reaching back 20 years has enriched hundreds of students' lives.
>> As Mission Commander of the first crew to leave the cradle of Earth for another world, Colonel Borman is one of America's Heroes whose legacy is a National Treasure.  It has been an honor and a privilege to share his friendship and we take solace in knowing he is now with his beloved wife Susan whose marriage spanned 71 years.

We live in a time where intelligent people are silenced so that stupid people won’t be offended.
