My dear KR Netters. I was a personal friend of the late Ken Rand and he was one of the best men I have ever known. Since all of you out there are interested in his design I want to tell you, all of you that I wish you could have met and got to know him because he was a person you would never forget. His lose was a real blow to the experimental aviation community and all who knew him experienced a real lose including me. I know the hardest time for his wife and daughters is this time of year when they remember the Christmas seasons they enjoyed together. He produced a great design that will be around for many years to come and hopefully he will go down in history as one of the great contributors to aviation.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL OF YOU WORLD WIDE WHO ARE KEEPING HIS MEMORY ALIVE BY BUILDING ONE OF HIS MAGNIFICENT DESIGNS. BOB STONE, HARKER HEIGHTS, TX
