It is with deep sorrow that I report the passing of fellow friend and vanner Rick Gilcrist of Garden City,Michigan. I just got the call from Howard Furtak. For years we all stayed at Rick's house on the weekend of the Baker's Early meet in Milford,Mi. If you attended Baker's, Gil was one of the guys that was a staple there every year so I'm sure you met him and his wife Deb. Rick was a long time vanner and he will be missed by many. My condolences go out to his wife Deb and the rest of his family.
Rick had just finished completely redoing his 64 Mercury 8 door van and barely got to enjoy it,what a shame. He always had a smile on his face,a big mug in his hand, and something nice to say. He was a great guy and I for one will surely miss his presence at the many meets he attended. I had just talked with Rick about 3 weeks ago. Such a shame we didnt talk a little longer. Things won't be the same without him.
