Greg Heier1941 - 2009I am saddened to report the death of GregHeier, editor of O Scale News. I just saw Gregat the March Meet on March 20th so it was ashock to learn he had passed away April 17th.Greg had been the Managing Editor of OSNsince 1987. He was also a writer and a professionalphotographer. Greg built his first 2-Rail OScale model in 1955. Over the years Greg wasa member of various clubs but his greatest lovewas volunteering at the Illinois Railway Museum(IRM). Not too long ago, Greg had become anNMRA Life Member and he was elected to theO Scale Hall of Fame in September 2007. Hewas also a great font of O Scale knowledgewhich will be missed.While many thought there was animositybetween OST and OSN, Greg was always cordialand collegial toward us.Our condolences to Joy, his wife, and to allof Greg’s friends in the hobby.A memorial fund has been set up in Greg'sname at the IRM. The nicest way to honorGreg’s contributions to our hobby would be tomake a donation to the IRM in his name.Joe Giannovario, PublisherExtra! Extra!
