One of our true friends in the hobby, Jack Gibbs, passed away this past month. Jack was 74 years old and lived in Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. He was host to a group of us attending the iHobby Expo in Chicago this past October with dinner and a great time visiting with Jack and friends. Jack was an avid collector and modeler and a very early and dedicated supporter of the 1/87 Vehicle Club. We've posted a very special tribute to Jack showcasing part of his collection in Photo Gallery 316. We hope you enjoy it as we know Jack would want!

We'll certainly miss Jack and our visits each October while attending iHobby Expo! Our condolences and best wishes to his family. [posted 12/09/2007]
