It looks like James C. Kensinger of Dysart, PA. (W3MJO-Cambria County) became a SK on 4-14-1999. There are some links here that show his "Obit Date" as 4-21-1999:

http://files.usgwarchives.org/pa/blair/obits/obit499.txt (says Blair County)
 I can't find a real newspaper obit for him.

He was born 6-6-1910 and his license expired 12-8-2005

I don't know if you'll see this John, but Jim was my great grandfather.

I was in my teens when Jim died. I never had the opportunity to operate with him, but I have a few of his things and I'm always looking for stories from those who knew him.

I'd love to chat with you, feel free to reach out.
