Celebrating the Life of a Dear Friend Merritt Horne Sept. 19, 1928 - Nov. 19, 2009 |
| Tidewater Region and the AACA in general lost a valued and dear friend on November 19th - Merritt Horne was one of the first members of this region when it was chartered in 1955, and remained an active and enthusiastic ambassador for our hobby right up to the end. Visitors to our national events may remember him as the cheerful greeter with a straw hat and candy-striped sports coat. He was a regular attendee at events all around Virginia, usually driving there in the 1940 Packard 160 sedan that was his pride and joy for 40 years. We'll miss his warm smile, quick wit, and gentle humor, especially the silly stories that always began with the introduction "Picture this..." | |
