Weeks of planning, talking, ticket selling, food ordering, and busy hands all led to a day of huge success.

Thank you, Fallon, Nevada, and the community of people supporting the next generation. We are so excited to have your support and willingness to show up. We look forward to making this event happen again, and it would not be possible without all of you.

We want to express a very special thank you to the Rafter 3C Community for allowing the use of the building and parking lot. Your assistance throughout the day was tremendous, and our day could not have happened without you. 

Our sincerest appreciation to:

Heidi, Stacy, Codie, and Christy - thank you for all your time, the weeks of meetings, traveling, working, ordering, food prepping, and everything that went into making this event possible.

Mark and Alanzo Williams, Patty Julian, Carla Pomeroy, Barbara Zoellner, Heather Nield, Zack Bunyard, and Tom Riggins - what an outpouring of support. Thank you for giving your time so willingly. It is because of people like you who show up that inspires others to want to do the same.

Ms. Johnson and our entire FFA Chapter, you guys are truly amazing. You washed, prepared, hustled, bustled, stirred, and checked timers. With your hands and eagerness to jump in and get the job done, the must-haves of the day were accomplished.

Thank you again.

One of my most favorite stories Paul told dated back to the late 60s or early 70s and it revolved around him killing a deer way out in the mountains. Naturally the deer ran down into a deep canyon and died. Knowing that it would take him forever to haul it out he devised an awesome plan. After preparing the deer he drove back to NAS Fallon and rustled up a SAR crew and they flew out and picked up the deer. Of course it was labeled as a training flight but what the hell in those days you could do that sort of thing. Rest in Peace my friend until we meet again!!Comment publication date: 4/11/24, 1:15 PMComment source: Obituary - LCDR Paul N PflimlinComment author: THughesComment text: So sad to hear.
