A Personal Note of Thanks

My mom, June Chenault.

Over the past month, our family has experienced a deep loss with the passing of my mother at the age of 88. She had been sick for a long time, and while we’re grateful she’s now at peace, it’s still been a difficult season. As a result, some of our orders from the Etsy shop have been slowed, and I want to sincerely thank all of you for your patience and continued support.

Many in the ham community have reached out with kind words and condolences—and I can’t express how much that’s meant. This truly is an extended family.

My mom was one of the reasons I became a ham in the first place. After my father (the original W5CWT) died when I was young, she insisted on keeping all his old radio gear. As a kid, I used to play astronaut, with his radios and oscilloscope as the control center of my imaginary rocket ship. That spark eventually led me to get licensed in college and I’ve been active ever since.

We’re slowly getting back on track, and I just want to say thank you. Thanks for your patience, your kindness, and for being part of this amazing community!
