Friendly, soft-spoken, obviously knowledgeable, being in his company was always a pleasure. I believe he died April 18, 2006. Here's a nice piece/eulogy about him from Van's Air Force: http://www.vansairforce.com/community/showthread.php?t=7209 Mark > Time: 08:49:17 AM PST US > From: "Bob Collins" > Subject: RV-List: Eust > > > Old-timers may remember Eustace Bohay, who was one of the early adopters of > sharing RV building expertise with others online.
