Not quite
Milts N5IA, (nee K5FPO), callsign lives on nicely and actively as the club callsign for the flagship
station in the New Mexico segment of our UHF linked radio system - that, chronologically, came before I
got him interested in 160

I don't have usable logs for my first contact with Jack, but it has to be in the early 60s. From far our
here in the wet end of the wild west, Jacks signal was a propagation beacon- if you didn't hear him, the
band was not open east of the Mississippi for us
73, Jack, Thanks for the many decades of contacts
Robin, WA6CDR,
XZ1N XZ0A, VP6DX, etc

Maybe some ham club will get his callsign, like Stew Perry's call was IIRC.
I thought that was the case for Milt Jensen, but apparently not.
When I die, no Topbander or club is going to want mine! ;-)
73, Mike
