Another One Has Passed….

| December 28, 2020

A Tuskegee Airman was given a flyover a few days before his 100th birthday.

Unfortunately, he passed shortly thereafter, without reaching his centennial birthday.

Mr. Farrar spent his life after World War II was over as an aerospace engineer, working for the FAA until he retired.

Catch the tailwind, Mr. Farrar. 2nd star to the right and straight on ‘til morning.
