Don Gfell passed last night; I am at a loss for words to satisfactorily extol the virtues of this most kind and humble man who was always a beacon of optimism and enthusiasm. We will all miss him dearly.
Services are scheduled for this coming Saturday, in Norwalk Ohio.

Very sad news. I only dealt with Don once, but the experience was friendly and pleasant. He seemed to be a genuinely nice person.

Re: DON GFELL RIP
Echoing what others have said. Don and Bobbie were always so friendly and helpful. He leaves a big hole, not only in the hobby, but in his community.
Hopefully there will be ways that we can show our support for Bobbie through this difficult time.
