Letter from Darrel Gibson Jr.

Posted on September 29, 2024September 28, 2024 by mwflyer

Good Morning, Dave:

Thank you for the beautiful writeup on my father, Darrel Gibson of Gibson Aviation, Inc., Eau Claire, Wisconsin (see page 28, August/September 2024, Midwest
Flyer Magazine
, midwestflyer.com).

He had such a positive attitude all of the time and an amazing work ethic.

I still don’t know where he found all the time for his faith, work, family and all his projects.

He always said “Make sure it is better after you get done, than before you started” when referring to working on aircraft. I believe he made this earth better than when he started.

I miss him dearly every day, and know he is up there high in heaven flying…

Darrel Gibson Jr.
