Former UMTA member Dave Ryhti was killed in a glider plane accident last Monday in the Tetons. Dave and his brother Bruce were active UMTA club members for most of the 70s. The St. Paul Pioneer Press article has a little more detail than the Strib.
I phoned Dave’s house in New Brighton this morning and talked to Bruce who’d flown in from San Jose. He said Dave’s body was being cremated in Jackson Hole before being shipped back here. He didn’t have details yet on when a memorial service would be held but said he’d phone me back as soon as he found out. I’ll post the details here.
