Cecil was one of the first CN employees. Still need an obituary. http://FAL-1.tripod.com/Cecil_Covington.html Post your remembrances of Cecil. -Jake Lamkins (12/26/10) Pretty sure Claude Covington did not go with FL after the merger. Don't think any of the inventory control people were offered jobs in DEN. I think Claude and some others went to DTW to Univeral Airlines where Lamar Muse went. Claude was the son of the CN mechanic Cecil Covington. -Brady White (12/27/10
