The OSSC Historian has lost touch with the families of Perkins and Korones, so plans on publishing  their Fellows Profiles here and in the OSSC Images Newsletter are postponed.  Information about those two and the others (Bednarz, Hamilton, Lawlor, Stickney, & Williams) or their next-of-kin would be greatly appreciated.
