Sadly I must report that Jay Lightner KC7BUR (aka "The Outlaw") passed away on November 16th 2014. Jay had been an active member on here for at least 15 years and was a friend to many of us. He was recently diagnosed with stage 4 cancer and was undergoing treatment. Jay was a US Army veteran (3rd Infantry Division). After his military service he worked for the Washington State Dept of Corrections at Monroe and the Umatilla Army Chemical Depot. Jay also spent about a year working as the resident ranger at the Snyder Guard Station in the Bridger-Teton National Forest (Idaho). Most recently he was living north of Spokane near Deer Park. Jay had a number of interests including on/off road motorcycling, hunting, fishing, camping, horses, and ham radio/scanners. He took his motorcycle and camping gear all over the trails of NE Washington (Ferry/Stevens/Pend Oreille counties) and Northern Idaho sometimes for weeks at a time.
