Vap closed the service by reading from "The Flier's Rosary," written by Max Conrad, a publicist for a small aircraft company who is known as "the flying grandfather." CARADORI FAMILY members moved to the side of Gary Caradori's widow, Sandi, and his son, Sean, 18, during the service to offer condolences. Gary's mother, Mary of Ralston, kissed the caskets, draped in white, before they were carried from the church.

Military graveside services by the U.S. Coast Guard, which Caradori belonged to, followed at Wyuka Cemetery in Lincoln. Among honorary pallbearers were U.S. Sea Jim Exon, a Nebraska Democrat, and former Omaha Mayor Mike Boyle, and Secretary of State Allen Beermana None of them attended.

No Brother says tragedy would be if work on Franklin investigation was forgotten. By Paul Hammel of The Lincoln Star The biggest tragedy in the deaths of Lincoln private Investigator Gary Cara-dori and his son would be if the investigation into the Franklin Credit Union was forgotten, his older brother said Tuesday.

The family feels that the biggest tragedy of all would be if after six months everybody forgot about this," Dick Caradori, 47, said. Gary Caradori, 41, and his son, Andrew, 8, died last Wednesday after the small plane Gary Caradori was piloting crashed in an Illinois cornfield west of Chicago. Tuesday morning, about 430 people said farewell during a service at the Cathedral of the Risen Christ Catholic Church in Lincoln, After the service, Dick Caradori, of Omaha and who farms in Rock Port, said the family trusted that the Franklin investigation would continue. He characterized his brother as "a fighter" and "a hard worker." AMONG THE MOURNERS were state Sena Bernice Labedz of Omaha, Loran Schmit of Bellwood and Jerome Warner of Waverly. They are on the state Legislature's special committee that is investigating allegations of child sexual abuse in connection with the failure of the Franklin Community Federal Credit Union in Omaha.

Gary Caradori was hired as the committee's investigator. Also attending were State Patrol CoL Harold LeGrande and Lancaster County Sheriff Ron Tussing, among other law enforcement personnel and people in- Holmes Elementary School, teammates from the YMCA Hawk baseball jteam and playmates from his south Lincoln neighborhood. ANDREW, WHO WAS to enter the third grade, loved baseball, the New York Mets in particular, and yearned to see tall buildings. He and his father had flown to Chicago for those reasons July 10 to watch the baseball All-Star Game. Caradori, a native of Ralston and a Vietnam veteran, joined the Nebraska State Patrol in 1971 and served six years before becoming a private investigator.

He frequently flew his plane throughout the United States and the world as part of his job, which often involved searching for people reported missing. In addition to his wife, son, mother and brothers Dick and Scott, Gary Caradori is survived by brothers, Shane and Tom, both of Omaha; and a sister, Mrs. Robert (Peggy) Metz of Ralston.

Walt Fowler, a product support manager for Piper Aircraft Corp, in Vero told the Star Tuesday afternoon that 98 to 99 percent of wing separations are caused by pilot-induced structural overload. Generally, Fowler said, overloads can occur when a plane is improperly loaded, or when a pilot gets disoriented in a storm and exceeds the design limitations of the plane.

Also Tuesday, NTSB spokesman Michael Benson said it appears no may-day call was sent by Caradori, contradicting an early report "There were no maydays. There appear to be no reports of any difficulty," Benson sail Investigators, however, still are studying one garbled transmission to the air control center in Aurora, 111., that could have come from Caradori's plane or from another plane, Benson said The tape of that transmission has gone to the safety board's laboratory in Washington, he said. Federal investigators haven't drawn any conclusions from the apparent lack of a distress call from Caradori, Benson said. The wings of the plane piloted by private investigator Gary Caradori broke off "outboard" or beyond the fuselage, William Bruce, investigator for the National Transportation Safety Board, said Tuesday. Bruce said he had investigated other accidents with similar outboard wing separations but declined to draw comparisons with the Caradori plane crash.

Bruce said he had seen no evidence of sabotage. Bruce said Investigators have completed their initial examination of the wreckage and are reviewing historical records of the plane and pilot He said it might take him eight to 10 months to complete his investigation, which is then forwarded to the NTSB in Washington to determine the probable cause of the crash. The former owner of Caradori's plane speculated Tuesday that bad weather might have contributed to the accident If Caradori lost control of the plane in stormy weather, the aircraft could have reached speeds that exceeded its structural limits, Rocky B. Rasmussen of North Platte told the Associated Press. "If you go into a dive and don't cut back on power, anything can happen," he said.

Cartt ftO a 1 LINDSAY (AP) Cleaning up contaminated groundwater and soil at Lindsay would cost about $3.82 million and take five years under a plan proposed by state and federal environmental officials.

The proposal made public Monday calls for expanding the program of pumping out contaminated groundwater and allowing the extracted chemicals to drift pf as vapor. It also calls for sinking up to 100 wells to pump out contaminants in the soil before they seep into the groundwater. The Nebraska Department of Environmental Control and U.S. Environ mental Protection Agency have proposed a four-week pilot study to determine whether the preferred proposal would be as effective as they anticipate. The study would cost $48,630.

State and federal officials selected the plan from 11 alternatives outlined by Lindsay Manufacturing Co. and environmental officials, said Rich Schlenker, who supervises the department's Super-fund unit in the hazardous-waste section. The department and EPA will select a cleanup method after hearing comments at a public hearing Aug. 9 in the Lindsay Town Hall and after studying written comments.
