I have flown into this apt a number of years ago and was greeted by a very old and pleasant lady who ran the place at that time. She and her husband had owned or operated this facility for many years and he had died some years before I was there.
Can you tell me their names and history.
Thanks
Dick

Her name was Libby Parod and she and her husband Carl started the airport. She has since passed away, however, more information about her can be found on the WI Aviation Museum as she was inducted into the Hall of Fame. Back many years there was also a story about her in PEOPLE Magazine. Here is a web site http://www.aviationhalloffamewisconsin.com/inductees/parod.htm about her.
