Tom Dafoe Memorial Fund

Tom Dafoe lost his life in a tragic incident during the MayDay STOL at Wayne Municipal/Stan Morris Field in Wayne, Nebraska, on Friday May 20th.

Tom is survived by his wife, Rebecca and their five children, his son-in-law and his first grandchild.

In 2021, Dafoe joined jetAVIVA as a Sales Director after a nearly 20-year tenure with Cessna Aircraft Co. He was a passionate aviator and devoted his career to promoting general aviation. His absence will be felt throughout our industry.

As colleagues, family and friends in the aviation community and beyond, we want to honor his life by supporting his family during this difficult time. All proceeds will go directly to help support the Dafoe family now and into the future. jetAVIVA has pledged to match donations dollar-for-dollar.
