In Memoriam John Myhre - Updated

 We just got word from Randy Anderson that John Myhre died late Thursday after a long illness.

John and his son Dan (2008)

John was a long-time member of the Museum and an enthusiastic helper on work of all sorts, especially the Line Dept. back in the 1970's when Randy A. was in charge.  And as Norm Krentel points out, he and Randy were responsible for installing much of the trolley wire we still use today, for both electric cars and buses.  He had his own unique sense of humor and was always cheerful and friendly.  He will certainly be missed.

Visitation will be on Tuesday, Oct. 19th, from 3PM to 8PM at Hitzeman Funeral Home, 9445 W 31st, Brookfield.  Funeral at 3PM on Wednesday at Faith Lutheran Church, 3801 Madison, Brookfield.
