I heard he was a special person and we owe him a lot for the contributions made during his lifetime.

My condolences to the Gibbs family and to a member here on the site who I believe was a very good friend of Stan Gibbs, Flaptail. Flaptail told me right after the Plug Feast that Stan was living in a rest home in Chatham I believe he said. Keep the great memories close Flaptail, and that original Gibbs plug you generously shared with us all at Plug Feast closer. Thanks again for sharing.:kewl:

Rest in peace Stan Gibbs, the first name in plug building as far as I am concerned.:uhuh:

Godspeed Stan Gibbs.

Mike P 02-04-2004 08:25 PM

Stan was a real good guy on top of everything else.

He'll be missed. He was an even more talented wood carver than he was a plugmaker.

Diamond Tackle 02-04-2004 09:04 PM

Sorry to hear it. :(
Rest in peace MR Gibbs.
Condolences to his family and friends.
One thing for sure, his name will live on.

NIB 02-04-2004 09:10 PM

RIP Stan Thanks for everything.

He's catching nothing but large now, one after the other.

capesams 02-04-2004 09:33 PM

I've driven past stans n. home atleast 4-8 times a day for the past two years, thinking I should stop an say hello, but always being in rush I never did. I just didn't want to be one of those people looking to have him sign a plug like so many others, being a pest..I know his son an will send a card or say something when I see him at the coffee shop...another great local fisherman gone:(

TheSpecialist 02-04-2004 10:06 PM

Very sad indeed. Rest in Peace Stan..

R.I.P Stan

My heart goes out to his family and freinds
