Statement from Jack J. Pelton, Experimental Aircraft Association CEO and Chairman of the Board, on the death of Audrey Poberezny, wife of the EAA’s late founder... Paul Poberezny. Audrey died in Oshkosh on Sunday, November 1, at age 95: The quiet power behind the leader in EAA’s formation and development was certainly Audrey Poberezny. She supported Paul from the very earliest days of EAA, from being the sounding board for ideas and balancing the books, to answering the phone and typing out membership cards. Audrey did whatever needed to be done, but never sought the spotlight for herself. Her understanding of people was also a gift that helped EAA grow and thrive into its unique place in aviation, and her warmth will be remembered by all who knew her. She was indeed EAA’s First Lady. Our deepest condolences to her children, Tom and Bonnie, and to the entire Poberezny family. Our best remembrance is to live up to the high standards and inviting culture that Paul and Audrey began with EAA nearly 70 years ago. Audrey and Jack are shown here when Audrey received EAA's Freedom of Flight Award during EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2014. See more

Congratulations!

Aviation is proof that given the will, we have the capacity to achieve the impossible. Eddie Rickenbacker
