Lifelong friendship honored in Walk of Fame

-A A +A

Ken Cigler, Earl Caton, and Frank Rebec have been building and flying planes together since the 1950s. They belonged to the same RC clubs and have spent over half a century as friends. When Earl passed away, Ken contacted the AMA Foundation about placing a brick in the Walk of Fame in his memory. After receiving the brick certificate in the mail, Ken reached back out to foundation staff to see if it would be possible to add two more bricks in the walk alongside Earl's; one for him and one for their friend, Frank. Ken really wanted to be able to add arrows to his brick so it would be obvious that the three bricks are connected. After much going back and forth, staff was able to get the engravers to put arrows on Ken's brick pointing up at Earl's brick and down at Frank's.   The Walk of Fame is a great way to honor loved ones, showcase your love for the hobby, and to help support AMA.
