I was shocked today when I received a call from a friend in Venezuela and learned that my friend Jose, YV5LIX, had passed away. Jose was part of the latest DXPedition to Aves Island..
Jose was premier DX'er and contester and I knew him from his activities on the air and as a customer. He was a great advocate for Ham Radio in Venezuela and he truly loved all aspecta of this hobby. I consider it an honor to have known him and wish his family all my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
God Blees you Jose, we will miss you. You will not be forgotten
