(older than traditional college-aged students) at SIU-C and, because I loved to party like most college students, it was a good thing to hang with this older more astute fraternity brother. We both graduated and moved to California in the early 90’s to pursue our ca- reers. Gil was an engineer, who loved to build and tinker with equipment. At many competi- tions I would find Gil and Greg Curry up late, sitting around the fire, talking about engi- neering. Gil, thank you for being a role model to our fraternity and especially to me. He is survived by his wife, Kim, and his two sons Gil Jr. and Miles. Rest easy, brother.
Alright folks that’s all I have for now. Let’s make sure to support contests as they are made available to us in the coming months.
I will see you next month from the corner.
