September 2017
GBNF – Fate was not kind to our class this quarter, as we lost three classmates.
Charlie Sargent, CS-25, passed away on June 4, 2017 from an aortic dissection. After his time in the Air Force he flew for Air India and Delta. Tributes for Charlie can be seen and submitted HERE.
Steve Barber, CS-21, passed away on June 14, 2017. Steve had a tremendous love for flying and spent as much time in the USAFA sailplanes as his academic schedule would allow. He was described as a gentle giant, a tinkerer, and a genius.
Dennis Forinash, CS-21, was struck and killed by a car on July 17, 2017 while jogging in Chicago on a layover. He is survived by his wife, Carla, their daughter Erin and son David. More information about Charlie, Steve, and Dennis is available HERE.
Recent Retirees – Congratulations to the following classmates who have given up the pursuit of wealth and fame and have taken the off-ramp that leads to spending their children’s inheritance...
