It is with great sadness that I must report the passing of Art Gerber overnight (9/13/07). Art was not only a very good friend for over 30 years but also a great asset to IPMS, serving as Head Armor Judge since the mid 1980's. He set the standard by which all judging should be accomplished. He will be missed for his fine wit and his humanity.

Our sincerest sympathies go out to Carolyn, his wife.
Rest in Peace, Art

Jack Kennedy
IPMS/USA President
