W4GYZ 1947 Jacksonville, Florida

Operator: R.E. Bogardus 1893 - 1947

An act of kindness and respect from an XYL. Here is a wife's moment of respect to finish out the log and close the station books. W4GYZ is R.E. Bogardus 1893-1947 known as Bo in Jacksonville.  Florence his XYL (Little Bo) W4HRC took the duty of remembering her OM by completing the QSL's in the log. I've seen this tender moment numerous times and felt it worth mentioning. Big BO is another pioneer in ham radio originally 2JR in 1920.
