I am so sorry to have to report the following from Micki Minner:
Charlie "Lite" Minner passed away on Thursday, May 12 in Tucson, AZ
after a very brief illness. He was devoted to and passionate about the
sport of soaring. Details about funeral arrangements will be posted on
the SSA website as soon as they are available. A Facebook tribute page
has been posted - here's the link. Our sympathies to Micki and
Charlie's whole family.

In the middle of the night I woke up hearing Charlie Spratt calling"
Good finish Charlie Light! Good Contest! It must have been a dream.

Charlie will be remembered today at El Tiro gliderport. Charlie and
Micki are loved there and remembered for the most Excellent Region 9
contest there this time last year. Charlie is a long time member of
Tucson Soaring Club. Charlie will go for his last flight today and be
honored on the deck at the clubhouse with a band, dinner and
celebration. You will be missed my friend.
