Second Roach Pond – October 25, 1964

     On October 25, 1964, two men in a Piper PA-185 flew to Second Roach Pond near the town of Kokadjo for a fishing trip.  Upon arrival the plane circled the pond once before attempting to land.  As the plane was attempting to land it stalled and dove into the water.  The passenger was killed and the pilot seriously injured.
