Sad news of Eric's passing!

A great friend of our club and members, KG9GH  has been an ever-present participant in many antenna projects, and was the organizer of our HAT Team (Ham Assistance Team) some years back. He was always there for Field Day, club events and fundraisers, and anywhere a fellow ham needed a hand. Several years ago Eric had to pull back a little because of his cardiac issues, but remained an active member of Tri-County ARES and club events.  

Eric was cherished by many and will be dearly missed by all who had the privilege of knowing him.

Eric is survived by his wife Cheryl Janssen; children: Bobbi (Aaron) Hubert, Andrew (Michelle) Janssen, Dawn (Nathanael) Edlbeck; grandchildren: Riley Hubert, Parker Hubert, Charlie Janssen, Wyatt Janssen, Levi Edlbeck, Lucille Edlbeck, Elizabeth Edlbeck and Eleanor Edlbeck; parents: Marilyn Janssen and Paul (Aurelia) Janssen; siblings: Amy (Travis) Jacquet and Chad (Kris) Janssen; niece and nephew: Josh (Kerry) Jacquet and Samantha (Peter) Covach; along with many other loving relatives.

Visitation will be held at New Life Church (810 Frontage Rd, Peshtigo, WI,) on Sunday, September 14, 2025 from 1 until 2 p.m. A memorial service will begin at 2 p.m., with a light reception to follow.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the DAR Boys and Girls Club.

Thank you Connie (KE9ALV)

For a WONDERFUL celebration of Arde - KA9WAR!

Thanks to Connie (KE9ALV) for  putting together a fantastic event for Arde Nelson (KA9WAR)! Though I didn't get a head count, there must have been about 50 or so friends, family and Ham Radio operators to join in with some great stories, conversations and buffet at the Coral restaurant in Peshtigo yesterday (9/06/2025)! Somehow my photo of the guest of honor did not work out, so I have used one of my favorites from field day a couple years ago!

This event was a wonderful chance to get together and celebrate the 103 years that make this man so honored by so many.  It was also a chance to thank him for his many years of service to his family, country, friends, community  and Ham Radio - sharing his love, strength , talents and knowledge with all that know him! We are all blessed and honored to be counted as friends!
