I got word tonight from Jack Sim's wife Cindy that Jack had a heart attack yesterday. He is currently hospitalized and in stable condition.

Jack has done a great service to the hobby with his book Illustrated Guide to Gas Pumps. He has spent many, many hours devoted to sharing knowledge on air meters and gas pumps.

Occasionally he rubs someone the wrong way, but there is no denying that he has changed our hobby for the better.

I'll be praying for a quick and complete recovery. Please post your thoughts here and I'll ask Cindy to print the page and bring it to him to cheer him up.

I'm praying for you Jack. I hope you have a speedy recovery. You got to get better soon so you can share more of that knowledge. I've about wore out my gas pump book and I've really been enjoying those Picture of the Day posts you've been doing. I look forward to seeing more once you get better.

Jack,

I had the same experience, 14 years ago, even went through a quad bypass. The medical community has made tremendous strides with heart treatment. That's why after all these years and three additional stents and a defbrillator I am still able to continue doing things I enjoy. I liken the experience to an old car or gas pump that needs the carb rebuilt or a gasket replaced. I wish you the best.

Hey Jack, when I met you at Iowa Gas, I said that we should get together to throw some darts. If you really didn't want to, you could have just said no. I mean, ya' didn't have to go to this extreme to get out of the game.... Get better..... Soon.... We all miss the pic of the day. and were all waiting for the new book. From all of us here, on Thunder Road, we'll be thinking about you.
