Archie put the fun back into flight training and check rides. He set a high standard but made learning fun. I enjoyed flying with him. I'm sorry for our loss.

Fly on......We'll miss him.

Archie was a good friend and I depended on him greatly during my tenure as Wing Commander of the South Carolina Wing, Civil Air Patrol. I was looking forward to working with him on my multi-engine rating. Col. Hartsell Rogers

High Flight



Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth.

And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings,

Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth

Of sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things

You have not dreamed of - wheeled and soared and swung

High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there,

I've chased the shouting wind along and flung

My eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long delirious, burning blue

I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace,

Where never lark, or even eagle, flew;

And, while with silent, lifting mind i've trod

The high untrespassed sanctity of space,

Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

Archie, you're in God's Air Force now. Thanks for your service in the South Carolina Civil Air Patrol.

AUNT DORA

I AM SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT ARCHIE BUT MY PRAY ARE WITH YOU AND TELL TAMMY I AM THING ABOUT YOU BOTH AND I LOVE YOU BOTH .

Archie was a great man and a great pilot. I recieved flight training from him as a cap cadet. Archie pretty much inspried my desires to fly. Without him, I wouldnt have achieved many of my aviation goals that I am so proud of today. May he rest in peace.

Mrs. Simpson,

I am so sorry to hear about Archie. He and I roomed together at the Mountain Flying School. Most recently I got to catch up on his flying activities at the National Checkpilot School. He was a really good friend.

Archie was a friend and fellow pilot.I knew him because of the Civil Air Partol and his hard work in that organization. We will miss him in CAP.

Dora Lee,

Our prayers are with you & your family.

Renee',

My deepest sympathy to you and your family for the untimely death of your brother. Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers during this very difficult time.

Tammy,

It makes me sad to know that your father has passed. I know this is not something we can ever prepare ourselves for, so please try to take your loss one day at a time.

Dear Tammy, Leroy and I were so sorry to hear of the loss of your father. The poem below helped me when my brother passed away; hopefully it will help you too. Again, we are very sorry.



SPIRIT OF SOUL, by Oliver Mbamara

"The heart of love knows the spirit of Soul,

And by the present practice of this perspective,

Shall the journey home be commenced,

And someday our destination shall meet within

To discover again, the true substance we are."



"And what am I but Soul,

And what is Soul but that I am;

The substance of beingness,

Expressing the consciousness of Spirit.

He was a very nice man to know and to work for.

Dora, I know I have not had a chance to get acquinted with you but Archie will be missed. I will always have a special place in my heart for all of Irene and Calvin's children. Aunt Irene, Mickey, and girls, I love you and think about you. I will not be able to attend the service but will try to keep in touch. Love, always Ruth

So sorry to hear about Archie. We knew him from the shag club. He was a very nice man and will surely be missed.

On behalf of the O'Shields family, we express our condolences to Dora and Tammy on the loss of their husband and father.

When I think of Archie I remember in the late 60's when he would visit mother and be on his bike. I have not seen Aunt Irene in too many years.



I will keep you and your family in my prayers. May God comfort you as only he can.

Dora and Family,



I am Delores Colson's daughter. We are saddened by the passing of our friend and neighbor. All of us are very thankful for the thoughtfulness that Archie showed to my mother over the years. He will be greatly missed. It is like losing part of our family.



With Heartfelt Sympathy,



The Colson Family
