Hi, my name is Rodney Slack.
I worked in maintenance from 1967 until our untimely demise.
I would like to join the alumni club and also I would like the 
Frontier web site to send to other former Frontier famile members.

Hi Rod,
Were you an aircraft mechanic?
Where all did you work in your FL career and what have you been doing since.
Are you related to DEN mechanic Don Slack?
Weren't you at the TUS golf tourney last year?
I was a station agent 1964-86 and in DEN the last few years.
I'm sending you an invite to the FL Club.
We also have a FL newsletter - send your postal address and I'll mail you one.

Welcome back to the FLamily.

Good Morning:  I was just made aware of this.  
Rodney 'Rod' Slack worked for Frontier Airlines for many years.  
His obituary does not reflect that.  
I'm sorry but this is all that I could come up with.
