Associate Members

We have some new associate members, but I have included a list of all of our associate members here, so you can see who they are to date.

Barolak, Linda - Skip was on his way to our 2002  Las Vegas reunion, from New Mexico, and found her stranded on a lonely stretch of highway outside of Winslow, Arizona.  She had her sister and a girlfriend with her and three kids!  He helped them get towed in to Flagstaff, AZ and get set up in a Motel room.  After getting their car fixed, they showed up in 'Vegas and stayed a couple of days...becoming a new family for Skip.  Her husband is in the Air Force and her son just joined the Army.  She lives on Travis Air Force Base, California.

Marshall, Dana - Skip's Sister in Mesa, Arizona.

Darcey, Elizabeth - Elizabeth is a 26 year young lady who bought a POW/MIA bracelet bearing James Jackson's name (our only MIA from the LZ). She asked for more information about him and I assisted her.

DeVoll, Richard and Judith - Long time friends of Skip...Family, actually.  They live in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

Donoso, Raul - Raul is a dear friend. Without him, Skip would have never gotten help from the VA for PTSD. He literally wrestled him to go there and then walked him through the entire process, keeping him on track when he wanted to fly.  This man has stories about his Army career in intelligence that are absolutely amazing.  Skip has been nagging him to write them up to publish on our web site.  He lives in Bellingham, Washington.

Epperson, Jeff - Brother of LZ member, Randy Epperson.  He has attended a couple of our reunions and also went with Ken Heins and Randy to Vietham, where they made it to the top of LZ Russell (See our Pictures section on the web site)  He is a nice guy who served in the Army.

Miller, Leslie - A friend of a friend who became Skips friend (another cutie!) and co-explorer in human spirituality, she frequents our web site and recommends it to friends.  She lives in Bend, Oregon.
