Dear members and friends,
We are so very sad to report that our friend, John Eels, passed away. John was a founding CORPS member, joining in 1985. He was the CORPS treasurer for quite a few years, a Doctor of Pipes, a master pipe maker, and a well-known pipeman in the worldwide community. He made many of our CORPS "Pipes of the Year". He will be greatly missed.
Please visit our Facebook page to share your memories of John.
For the Conclave,
Linwood Hines
John Eels, founding member of the CORPS and Master Pipe Maker
