Remembering Uncle Roark

As most of you already know Kevin's Uncle Roark was killed on August 5th while piloting the helicopter that crashed in California fighting forest fires. He was in Lostine, OR over the weekend for his memorial service. He said it was one of the most uplifting services he had ever been to and here are a few of the pictures from his trip.

The middle picture is of Uncle Jon (who also just passed away exactly 1 month before Roark), Grandpa and Roark. (It's hard to see with the flash but I thought it was a nice picture)

This is a picture of Roark in action.
