ARLX017 Former ARRL Illinois Section Manager Tom Ciciora, KA9QPN
(SK)

ARRL is sad to report that Thomas "Tom" T. Ciciora, KA9QPN, of
Sandwich, Illinois, has become a silent key. He was 66 years old.
Ciciora served as the Section Manager of the ARRL Illinois Section
from 2006 - 2017. He was an ARRL Life Member.

According to an obituary, Ciciora was active in several amateur
radio clubs and had been the director of the Sandwich Emergency
Management Agency.

Ciciora was involved in emergency communications, and he was
frequently quoted in ARRL News during his time as Section Manager to
highlight the work of radio amateurs in Illinois.
