Default Dick Padgett passed away

It truly is hard to imagine Wurtsboro Airport without Dick Padgett. He was a constant, dedicated and reliable pilot and a good friend. I'm grateful for all the time I got to spend with him over the years.
Thanks for all the tows and support, my friend. I miss you.

Dick kept towing every day until he was almost 92 years old. Here is a great video of "just another day at work" for Dick the summer he was 90:
