Bill Moore, NC1L, Seriously Injured In Car Accident
#1

The following news is from K5FUV, Bill Kennamer. Feel free to pass this on to your DX friends and clubs.

"DXCC Manager Bill Moore, NC1L, was seriously injured in an automobile accident about two weeks ago. His neck was broken, leaving him paralyzed from his upper body down, with limited movement of his arms. Recovery will be difficult and slow, and is not expected to be total. Bill would like to hear from his friends. He is currently in the Mount Sinai Rehab Hospital in Hartford, but cards and well wishes should be sent to 92 Reservoir Rd, Newington, CT 06111".

Friday K5FUV, Bill Kennamer, and I visited Bill at the rehab hospital. We spent a few minutes with NC1L, Bill, who was extremely glad to see us. I gave him one of the ARRL Centennial Convention coins and told him how successful the event was going. He was very happy to hear the news and the greetings from his friends. Bill's sister-in-law Gina was there in the hospital and asked us to tell Bill's friends that he would love to hear from them. So if possible let's all show Bill our love and concern for our dear friend by sending him our QSL with good wishes. I know Bill and the family would greatly appreciate your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

From the August 7th 2014 ARRL Letter here is an update on NC1Ls condition:

ARRL DXCC and Awards Manager Bill Moore, NC1L, Recuperating Following Accident

ARRL DXCC and Awards Manager Bill Moore, NC1L, was seriously injured in a single-car accident on the afternoon of Thursday, July 3.

Moore suffered a broken neck and other injuries and is paralyzed from the chest down. He is stable and recuperating in a Newington rehabilitation facility. There is no timetable for his return to work at ARRL Headquarters.
