Doug Switz's Passing
Doug Switz, an active member of this board passed away on Friday, February 15th, two days after his last post here. I found this out from another collector who had been emailed by Doug's sister. Doug collected a variety of scales and was particularly interested in Batmobiles and the Porsche 917, specifically Mark Donohue's Penske Porsche 917/30.
I don't have any further information, at this time, but will pass along anything I receive.
God's speed, Doug.

That's very sad to hear. All thoughts and condolences to Doug's family and friends at this time. Doug was certainly a valued member of the diecast car family here.
