I'm saddened to relay the following from Scott Wilson:
----------------------------------------------------

To All:

I'm sure by now you have heard or read about the passing of my father Carlton Wilson. Dad and I have been a member of the Johnson Co RC Flyers for about 30 plus years and What fond remembers I have being at the field and flying and being with a great bunch of people.
 
There well be a memorial serivce 1-3pm on Saturday Jan 7th at the Eskew Eaton Funeral Home in Edinburgh 302 E Main Cross..
We asked instead of you sending flowers, which is ok, but you may make a donation to the AMA General Scholarship in his honor.
 
If you have any questions please feel free to contact me at pop's house 812-526-2162 or 812-677-6541 cell
 
Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers at this time in my family life.

You all have been so great to me and pops over the years... We have been truly blessed with knowing each of you.
Dad will be missed!
 
Scott Wilson

Additional info from Scott Wilson:
--------------------------------

All..
 
Thank you for the kind words, cards, thoughts and prayers. My family and I laid Pops ashes to rest on Monday 1/9/12. What a sad day! The world lost a pretty good modeler.  I know I will miss him greatly.

My family and I have decided to sell many of the model airplane items. Our goal is to help offset the cost of Pops headstone. I know Pops would love sharing all his stuff.. Just knowing it was not going to waste would make him happy. So please come and share some laughs look through some junk and have a good time.. Pops would have wanted it that way.
 
As for me.. I already have Pops planes and they will be enough for me for quite some time. My guess I will never have to build again.. HAHA (remember he who dies with the most airplane stuff wins... so right now I think Pops is in the lead)  Smiley
 
The items that I can think of right now are Three Bud Nosen mustangs.. one is finished and signed by the real pilot. from ww2. The second is framed and unfinished and a third is still in the box.  Also there are few smaller semi-finished airplanes, Rossi 60 size 2-stroke motors..  some old McCoy red head control line engines.  lots of plans, parts,  some wood, older radios and much, much more.
 
I plan to have the sale Saturday 1/21/12 from 10am 'til?  (Indy time)
the address is 604 N. Lincoln St. Edinburgh Indiana 47670  (out in the shop... most of you know where that is)

If you have any questions about anything dad might have had you think you would like.. Let me know and I see if it's still around.
 
Thanks again
