If you've attended many Oil & Gas shows in the east and midwest in the last five years or so, you've probably met or seen the fellows from LeBaron Sign Service - Jerry Neault and his son Rick. I just learned that Jerry passed away recently, and I thought I'd pass the news along to those who knew him.



As you can see from this photo, Jerry had a unique style that included a full beard and he often wore the cowboy hat shown here. He was a personable fellow who always seemed glad to see me whenever we'd run into each other. My impression of both Jerry and Rick was that they did excellent work and cared about exceeding their customer's expectations. If you've ever looked at their portfolio of before-and-after photos you know what I mean. Jerry died in his sleep at the much too young age of 50. Our condolences go out to Rick and the rest of Jerry's family.

They set up next to me at mason Dixon last year. Although I have never had a sign restored or pretended to need their services, they talked to me throughout the day and answered a hundred questions about the restoration process. Real nice people,, sorry to hear such news.


see me at Mason Dixon Gas, Spring Carlisle M114-115, and Hershey C4E-35.
