From an Email dated October 25th 2011 sent to AMA Staff: I was informed yesterday that John Worth (past AMA President and Executive Director) passed away, peacefully, on Sunday, October 23 at 10:30 pm. At this time the family will have a small ceremony in Florida and probably later will have a celebration of life. I will be talking with his daughter later today to discuss where to send donations. Sincerely, Joyce Hager Assistant Executive Director (765) 287-1256 ext. 200 www.modelaircraft.org From District II VP Gary Fitch: I wanted to pass along sad news that John Worth passed away last Sunday. John and I communicated via email on several occasions concerning the Model Aviation Archives which John wanted to see happen, and which we will complete. I met John only once, at the indoor portion of the NEAT Fair and was impressed how a man of his years still had a love of flying. He contributed much to the AMA and will be missed. Certainly his passing is worthy of significant mention on our website and in our publications. Gary Fitch Vice President District II
