So sad to hear this. I first met Jantz in person at the 2012 National in
Baltimore. I found him to be very likeable, honest and a knowledgeable collector. I don't go to all the Nationals but we made arrangements to meet up at the ones that I did attend. I didn't go to Chicago last year but we had already talked about meeting up in Cleveland this year I will miss his presence and I'll be thinking about him.

Wow, this is very sad.
Never met the man, but always enjoyed his posts and his insight here. RIP

Very sad to read about this, especially at such a young age.
The online obit includes a place for messages, and I'm wondering (particularly for those who knew him) if it might be appropriate to link this thread in the message area for his family. It certainly would show that he had a great deal of support from the collecting community that he held near to his heart. |

I met Jantz at National, and he was a really nice guy with a smile on his face. My condolences to Jantz's family; my thoughts are with them.

is just awful! I found out last night, and it has saddened me much....took a toll on me big time...
Jantz and I have been friends for 12 or so years......we spent hours on the phone talking T206 and fishing.....We had many trades together....it pains me to write this.....his long time girlfriend also passed a year ago....I'm sure they are reunited.... Jantz was an absolute expert on T206 and we shared info on the set .... his contribution and personality will be painfully missed.... he was one of the most easy going , true , nice guys of the hobby and life.... he contributed so much to the hobby.....he was almost completed the polar bear subset and would carefully pick out each card.... he was planning on attending the national again this years.....also, he was looking forward to fishing soon.... ![]() this is still a shock..... |

I am so deeply saddened to hear this news. Jantz was one of the nicest, easiest guys to deal with. Looking at my PM history, one of my last purchases was with Jantz. He was always helpful and always had a kind word. He will certainly be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.
