I believe he will continue to fly with us in our hearts and minds.
My condolences to his family.

Let us not mourn the passing of our friend, his suffering is at an end.
Instead let us celebrate his life and the positive contributions he has made to our Squadron and his family, co workers and friends.
IMHO I believe he would want us to remember the good times and the things that we enjoyed together.
