Gene Hackman, Oscar-winning actor who died Feb. 26, once visited Oshkosh's aviation museum
OSHKOSH – Add EAA to the list of those mourning Gene Hackman. The Oshkosh aviation museum shared a memory and an old photo of the late Oscar-winning actor, who shockingly passed away in suspicious circumstances Feb. 26 with his wife and dog. An avid pilot, Hackman made a surprise visit to the EAA Aviation Museum in 1989 and toured the facility with then-EAA Senior Vice President Tom Poberezny. According to the old EAA publication, Hackman called the visit one of the most enjoyable days he had experienced in quite some time. Hackman, 95, his wife Betsy Arakawa, 63, and a dog were found dead at their New Mexico home Feb. 26 in a case authorities are determining as 'suspicious.'
