James was a longtime member of IPMS Richmond and exemplified someone who truly loved the hobby. He was a prolific modeler and his interests spanned all genres and we all will certainly miss his "Show & Tell" presentations.
Frank Gomillion passed away on July 7, 2023 after a prolonged illness. Funeral and burial will be:

Frank was a member of IPMS Richmond during the 1980-90s. He gravitated towards figure painting and was one of the original members of the Virginia Company of Military Figure Collectors. Although he moved to Fredericksburg he was a frequent attendee at the Old Dominion Open.
Please keep these two gentlemen in your thoughts and prayers.
