[AT] Lucille Monson

[Mike Sloane]

I am sorry to have to pass along the news of the death of Cecil Monson's 
widow Lucile. Some of us who have been on the ATIS list for a while knew 
Cecil and Lucille. I was just exchanging messages with Lucile last week 
- she said she had some images of Cecil and some of his friends, taken 
at a tractor show. But she never sent the images.

An image of Lucille can be seen at
