Don Gibson

[Bill A]

It is with sadness I am posting. Don Gibson, a long time militaria collector from Petrolia died earlier today. Don had a passion for collecting and was always good for some interesting stories. He had a strong interest in Lambton County militaria, and collected CEF and king's crown. Always fun to chat with and a gentleman of the old school. His promise was his guarantee. I will miss Don.

Really sorry to hear of Don's passing Bill, he was a GREAT fellow & certainly knew how to tell a story!
Many of the old timers passing away the past few yrs, unfortunately.
I had not seen Don for at least two yrs as have not been to a CSMMI show for a while. Don was a longtime member & a regular at that show.

Don also collected RCN, he was a former MA(Medical Ass't) in the RCN in the late 50's.

Don will be missed. He also collected to WWI Cdn. Battalions and I purchased several items from him over the years.
