I just read on Facebook that another long time collector passed. I do not believe everything I read on Facebook but this looks like it is true. Deryl was another Sinclair collector. I met him at one of the shows back when I first started collecting. He was a good guy, normally went to the Peotone show and Columbia with Tom Buckels. He was also a car guy and a big fan of the Colts. Not sure if he posted on Old Gas or not. Another great collector and nice guy gone to soon.

I just got a call from his son Jordan that his dad passed away this morning. Deryl was a life long friend, we both grew up in Knightstown. He was a true Sinclair collector, his dad operated the Sinclair station in Knightstown in the 1940's. Many of you that attends the midwest shows will remember Deryl as he traveled me. He was having heart problems just last week and said he was going to go with me to the Dixie show no matter what, he will be with me in spirit, I will certainly miss him. Tom.

I am in complete shock right now. A fellow collector sent me a text to tell me the news, and again I had to come here to see if it was true. Deryl was always one of my favorite people to see at Peotone and a truly wonderful person. Words cannot describe how sad I am to hear this news and how dearly he will be missed. Prayers going up for his family.
