Do you have additional info on the deaths of Barker and Pendergraft such as date of death, obituary, etc.
I can post the info on our website and in the newsletter.
I already have some info on Doyle from his son.
Add anything you have.

I'm still trying to find some info on their deaths.
I found this at the Social Security Death Index:
LINZY N PENDERGRAFT  
Born 10 Jan 1929 
Died 19 Jul 1989

Does that sound like our Linzy?
Can't find anything on Hub.
What was his real name and approximate age?
Thanks,

Thanks for the info.
Did Linzy work only at OKC?

I believe Linzy only worked at OKC.  He worked for AA before Central and was a Radio Operator.

Station agent seniority date of 8/10/64, emp# 06990, on the 1/1/86 FL/ALEA seniority list.
Three CN Skywriters articles give conflicting info on when Linzy started.
An Aug 1962 item welcomes him aboard as a new hire.
A Sep 1964 piece welcomes him and a Jun 1965 article notes his 3rd anniversary.
All my seniority lists show his seniority date as 8/10/64.
