Forrest and Gerry O'Keane Passing

Post by rondupree » Fri Jun 28, 2024 9:12 am

I just recently found out that we have lost two long time midwest Model T friends.

Gerry passed on April 21 of this year

Forrest joined her soon after on May 22 of this year.

We enjoyed seeing Forrest at a number of Illinois/Missouri/Iowa auctions and were on a number of tours with Forrest and Gerry.

We will miss you guys.

They will indeed be missed, I enjoyed talking to them at local swap meets. For those that don't already know, Melba Nolan is their daughter and often sells parts from the family inventory on the MTFCA classifieds.

Looks like I forgot to include a link to Forrest's obituary.
