Pat Seketa
Another one of our Duke Field Pioneers, Pat Seketa, passed away on 18 January
with Heart issues while visiting her Daughter up in Illinois. As most of us older
guys remember she ran the Pay section at Duke by herself in the years prior to the
Gunship era, and was always there when we had pay issues. She loved all of the
Duke Family as her own (especially her Fly Boys!!!) and supported us with pride.
Pat was a highly respected "civilian member" of the Duke Family and extremely
proud of the 919 SOW. Another dedicated "Pioneer" who will be missed by us all.
Please keep her family in your prayers as they go through this very difficult time.
She will be cremated in Illinois and a memorial service will be held here in
the spring or summer as she wanted her ashes to be spread over the Bay.
Her next birthday would have been the 28th of this month. Mary
