I don't know if you can help me, but here goes. On Sept. 11, 1959 my parents and brother were killed in a private plane crash - I am presuming - at your airport. I am wanting to come to Tennessee and while there I would like to come to the airport and place flowers at the crash site. Would you have records of the crash that far back in your archives and, if so, is the site accessible?

Specific Information:

Date: Sept. 11, 1959

Pilot - &quot;Bo&quot; Keller
Passengers - Doris Walter, Roy Walter, Mark Walter

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Rebecca (Walter) Cline
