| 词条 | William E. Boeing Jr. |
| 释义 |
Boeing Jr. had fond childhood memories of the Red Barn, the birthplace of the Boeing Company, where he was once given a piece of balsa wood he crafted into a model ship. He did not understand his father's importance until his classmates nicknamed him after one of the Boeing airplanes.[4] In the late 1970s he was instrumental in ensuring that the Red Barn, the oldest airplane manufacturing facility in the U.S., was preserved and integrated into the Seattle Museum of Flight.[5] He died in Seattle on January 8, 2015, aged 92.[2] In 2014, Boeing Jr. was inducted into the International Air & Space Hall of Fame at the San Diego Air & Space Museum.[3] FamilyBoeing is survived by his second wife June and predeceased by his father and his two older half-brothers, McDonnell-Douglas executive Nathaniel Paschall III (1912–1979) and Cranston Paschall (1916–1994). He was also predeceased by son William Boeing III (1953-December 2013) and first wife, Marcella Cech, who died in 1990.
