Posted: Mon Jul 17, 2017 5:11 am Post subject: Missing Man for my Father in Law |
|
|
I'm reaching out to you all in the Cleveland Ohio area. My father in Law Robert D. Shea passed away recently and we will be having a ceremony at KCGF which is named after him.
I would mean a lot to the family if we could get a missing man over the field during the ceremony. His Obit is below.

Robert D. Shea, 93, died Saturday, June 14, 2017 in Ocala, Fl. surrounded by family.
He leaves behind his 4 children Robert Jr, John, Mary and Tom.
Born in Cleveland, son of Margarite (Mitchell) and Patrick Shea, he was a longtime resident of Gates Mills, OH
He served as an Army Air Corps pilot during WWII and went on to graduate from Ohio University in 1948. After the war he dedicated his life to aviation, first as a Flight Instructor in the Air Force reserve from 1946-1948 and in 1949 opened the Cuyahoga County Airport and served as airport manager for 42 years.
In 1963 Robert was the Recipient of the Air Force Association Aero Space Award and 1990 Recipient of the American Association of Airport Managers Distinguished Service Award. He was beloved member of the QB Society for 40 years.

He continued to serve the aviation community as:

On October 13, 1991 Robert retired after 42 years of dedicated service from the county. In tribute, the Board of Cuyahoga County Commissioners dedicated his name to Cuyahoga County Airport which is now also known as ROBERT D. SHEA FIELD.
