My father, Richard Ziebart (417th NFS), passed away peacefully on Wednesday afternoon, Jan 10th, and his wife, Lorraine, joined him today. As sad as their passing is, I am happy that they were able to join each other in the last chapter of their journey.
I’m sure there’s a 417th NFS reunion being planned in heaven as I write this.
Peace.

It is with a heavy heart that I writing to notify the followers of this website, particularly members of the 417th NFS family, that my father, to whom I dedicated this site, is in ill health and will likely be going into his Lord’s arms very soon. Your thoughts and prayers for a peaceful journey on this, his last flight are welcome.
