The Society would like to thank member Debra Rehm for her wonderful presentation on the 1954 Walesville plane crash at the October 20, 2021meeting. Debra has collected an impressive amount of information on the crash which occurred near her husband, Joseph’s , family home many years ago. Her program was very well received.
Interestingly, in the audience was Al Geer who, coincidentally, was actually on an ambulance crew that was called to the crash site that fateful day. As it turns out, Mr. Geer was in one of the pictures featured in the newspaper articles that Debra had displayed at the presentation. He had time following the meeting to meet with members and share his memories of that day.
Below are a few pictures from the event. First is presenter Debra Rehm and Al Geer. 2nd is newspaper article picture from 1954. 3rd picture is close up and Al Geer is in the center. Other pictures were taken at the meeting.
