I also appreciate how all of you embraced me after Wayne and I got married. I will get through this by the grace of God and the many members of my Frontier Airline family, my church family, my daughters and their families, and all the Holder clan who have always treated me like Wayne and I have been married since "day 1". I love you all very much, and hope to see you at the next reunion in August. Keep in touch so I know what is going on with everyone. Love, -Helen Holder (1/9/02) Keep hanging in there. Time will help it get better. I'll keep sending the newsletter so you'll know when the reunion is in August. I would like to do a webpage for Wayne. Do you have a good photo I could use? All I have are from the reunions and they aren't real good quality. If you could scan one & e-mail me; that would be great. Or mail it to me & I can return it. -Jake Lamkins (1/10/02) Thanks for the additional info, Wayne will be missed, I worked with him for many years at DFW, he was a special person, always ready to help in way he could, always smiling and a pleasure to work with. -Sol Lockett (1/17/02) I knew Elliot "Number one in ALEA for years".
