It is with a heavy heart that we learned today that Bill (William J.) Burns, 84, of Willoughby, lost his battle with cancer last week, on October 6^th .

Bill was an avid golfer and built and flew R.C. airplanes.  He was a member of our club since 2015, and cherished flying as he fought the cancer.

Bill married his wife, Sylvia in 1955. Together they had four children, Randy, Terri, Dale and Elaine (John) Coleman; two grandsons, Jarrod and Tim; and one great-granddaughter, Natalie Hinton.
There will be no formal calling hours. Private family services were held.

Arrangements are entrusted to McMahon-Coyne-Vitantonio Funeral Homes in Willoughby and Mentor.
To leave condolences for the family, visit www.MCVfuneralhomes.com .

Regards & Good Flying,

Congress acts to protect model aviation from burdensome regulation

Both the House of Representatives and the Senate passed the first FAA Reauthorization legislation in several years, including an amendment aimed at protecting model aviation from what AMA views as burdensome federal regulations. "This is a great victory for aeromodeling," said AMA president, Bob Brown, "and much of the reason for this success is due to AMA members who sent letters of concern to Congress last year. Thanks to all of you, we've been heard and our flying privileges have been protected." CLICK HERE TO READ MORE
