This was taken from an article in the Opinion & Comments portion of the Daily Journal that was written by Steve Wizarde. I'm quoting his wonderful words since I couldn't have worded it quite as eloquently.
"One of the driving forces behind the years of construction, airport lighting and expansion was a man known to many of you.
During the airport improvement project the airport manager and owner of West Central Airways was Lucky Shol.
Known to so many area residents either from the airport itself or by Lucky and Blanche Shol's prized Viking Cafe in downtown Fergus Falls, he is without question a man who deserves recognition for the endless time and energy he put in to making our airport one that will serve our community far into the future.
Lucky Shol poured his heart and soul into making Einar Mickelson Field a model airport.
The time he spent planning, coordinating, nurturing and grooming our beautiful airport would be measured in years. He was truly a man of vision and an asset to our community throughout his lifetime." -Steve Wizarde

Lucky Shol should definately be considered for this matter.

I think the city council should consider Lucky Shol for this honor. His work and committment to the Fergus Falls Municipal Airport should not go unrecognized.

I think Lucky Shol would be a very appropriate name for the airport access road. He had such a vision for what it could be and worked very hard to make it what it is today. Making it known what an impact he had on the Fergus Falls Municipal Airport would be a great tribute to his life.

Sam, I think you're doing a fine job. You can't please everyone, especially any of the people posting on here apparently. Just keep up the good work.

What about Lucky Shol? He did so much for that airport when he was the owner/manager. He was also a WWII vet.

Joe will be greatly missed. He was the the kind of guy everyone wanted to be around. His family is in my prayers.

If you look about 4 paragraphs into the article where it states "This project is a collaboration..." you'll see that it is Jeremy Kovash. Read better.

And the City wonders why so many of it's residents go out of town...I've lived here for almost 25 years and I've seen nothing but a decline in entertainment for our youth and an incline in crime. I'm pretty sure there is a connection.

Jim Henkes was like a 2nd grandpa to me after my grandpa Lucky passed away. Seeing him at the Viking Cafe was always something I looked forward to when I worked there. We miss you at the Viking, Jim. You are definately deserving of this award. Congrats!
On Henkes never forgot FFHS ties
