Joye Kating
#1

Awhile back, I posted some pictures of the murals in the officers club in Casper Air Base, which, thanks to Joye Kating, is now the Wyoming Veterans Museum. I also related the story oof how the 80 year old Mrs. Kating booted out a teenage boy for saying the holocaust was a bunch of lies.

 

In today's Casper Star Tribune is a profile of Mrs Kating, now 87 years old. I posted this in the Home Front for the great picture of her with what looks like a very big sixgun.

I first met her about 10 years ago during a Street Reconstruction Project where she runs an electrical supply business with her son Frank. It turned into an hour and a half visit as she showed me one of her many scrapbooks and told me about her museum project. It took several more years but she finally got the funding from the state legislature.

 

It has been a great privilege to know suh a fine lady.
