Nah, I bet someone left the camera chip out and Allison swallowed it, so they're watching the litter box...

The XP-82 Project page posted today on Facebook that Margaret (Peggy) Soplata passed away.
She was Walter's widow and they were the previous caretakers of the XP-82.

Sorry to hear this: I hope the final resolution of the collection is a positive one.

Agreed. I didn't see that when I made my previous post. Sad news indeed.

Condolences to the family and friends of Peggy & Walter. Peggy passed Feb. 26th and as of now there are no immediate plans on what is going to become of the collection.

I have a personal photo of Walter and Peggy posing next to the F7U.
RIP Mrs. Soplata. Prayers to the family.

Another great update, and a lovely photo of Walter and Peggy.

"Magnificent" hardly seems like worthy enough praise for the work being done so I will throw in an "awesome" as well!
