Don Erickson
Longtime AM/FM/shortwave radio DXer Don Erickson of Riverside, California
died Monday (3/1/05) in a noon-hour fire that engulfed his home.
Firefighters had to break through windows that were boarded up, and found
Don's body in the back of his home. A fire department official described the
home as one of a "pack rat" with stacks of newspapers and magazines from
floor to literally the ceiling.
Don had been a radio hobbyist for decades, and had been very active in
various radio clubs. So far, officials have yet to determine the cause of
the blaze.
Sad news.
FYI.
