Very, very sad news.

Eternally grateful for his service to our country, and God Bless his soul.

Default RIP good man

Reading his online obituary and comments it's plain to see he was a genuine, kind, easy-going and wonderful person. I had one message exchange with him over the years and indeed just in that message he was incredibly respectful and informative.

RIP Jantz

So sorry to read this. Jantz was a sweet and friendly guy who loved the hobby. I loved seeing him at the occasional show and watching him light up when he talked about T206s.

Hopefully his family reads this thread and sees our condolences.

So sad. I noticed that he posted fairly often and seemed very easy going? Was he sick? RIP

Jantz and Gil; that's a double header of losses which hurts us all.

Talk about shocking news!
I met Jantz a few Nationals ago (with conversations as subsequent ones), and we ended up bird dogging cards for each other (Polar Bear T205s for him at the time). A wonderful guy all around who will be greatly missed.

Very sad to hear this. Jantz was one of the rare guys who I never actually did a deal with, but would just chat via email with a few times a year. I didn't know him real well, but would have liked to. In our correspondence, he was always super nice and of course very knowledgeable about about the T206 set. His family is in my thoughts.
