Thank you from AleciaThe family of Harley McGatha would like to thank all of our EAA Chapter 890 friends for their kind expression of sympathy for us during this difficult time. Harley was a loving husband, father and grandfather who will be greatly missed by all of his family and friends. This desire to experience all that life had to offer, along with his great love and general aviation allowed him to make lifelong friendships all over the world. A friend said it best when he noted "that the only thing Harley enjoyed more than flying, was sharing his love for flying with others" and he would want that to continue. He would take great pride to know that the memorial fund contributions will be used to share the experience of flying. Words cannot express our gratitude for the show of love and respect for Harley. Thank you, Alecia McGatha |
