Another long time collector passes away

[Preece1]

All,

With a very heavy heart I wanted to tell the board that my father Duncan Preece has passed away. He was a collector and frequent convention attendee since the 1971 Detroit shows. He lost his first collection (purchased as a kid in the late 1930's) to the trash bin when my mother threw them out because she didn't want her kids to play with dirty old cards and wanted them to have new ones. He stopped going to conventions in the 1980s and just enjoyed the collection he had. When he was collecting, it was the golden age, everything could be had,for a reasonable price.
