Title: Female Stunt Grunt
Post by: john e. holliday on December 20, 2007, 12:49:51 PM

Maybe this young lady has been nominated already, but, at my age I can't remember and too lazy to do a search.  I received a Christmas card from her and as usual she caught me stuffing my face.  She lost her husband several years ago and there was kind of a memorial service at VSC for him.  I thought that was the last I would see if this young lady.  Since that time she has realized that model planes were too much of her life.  With help from the CHOLLA CHOPPERS she has learned to judge stunt.  She always took terrific picture of us guys with our planes and other things.  The young lady is none other than "Ricki Pyatt".  Wife of the late Lucky Pyatt and one fine lady.  Now to hear from the people that really know her as I only get to see her once a year.  DOC Holliday

Rickii was Lucky's treasure. I am glad to see her recognized here.

Rickii gets our vote. When Shaheen was in hospital in Tucson Rickii was a daily visitor, and invariably with a freshly homebaked cake! I had a hard job keeping up with the cakes, but the bottom line is my arm didn't really need much twisting!!!  #^

yes, a fine Lady! (that's the highest compliment from these parts for those of the female gender! ;D )  I received my card, and it was a fairly emotional moment......
