[Nodxa] Bob Heil SK

 From the Heil facebook site:

Our beloved founder, Dr. Bob Heil, K9EID, is now a Silent Key. Bob 
fought a valiant, year-long
battle with cancer, and passed peacefully surrounded by his family. 
Bob's lifelong passion for
amateur radio was clear to everyone involved in the hobby. Everything 
Bob did for the betterment
and growth of amateur radio - from his instructional handbooks and 
countless presentations to his
support of the ARRL and youth programs - was based on the foundation and 
spirit of service. Bob
was an Elmer to all of us. While Bob's presence will dearly be missed, 
his impact on the hobby and
everyone in it will forever be felt. On behalf of Bob to all ham radio 
operators worldwide, 73.
