I learned from the Team Net Healey Mail List that Kent Lacy gladhill1937 passed away in his sleep earlier this week. Many will have known him for his 100M concours knowledge as well as his 100M Nasty Boy. He was extremely knowledgeable and always willing to share his expertise. He was an invaluable help to me in building my Nasty Boy and will be missed by the Healey community.

Kent was a pillar of the Healey community and a wonderful, patient mentor who was very generous with his encyclopedic knowledge. He will be greatly missed. RIP Kent

Kent was truly an amazing Healey expert for the 100, but also for the Longbridge BN4!!! May he RIP how old was he?

Editor Read,
were you planning to do an article on Kent for a future Healey Marque Magazine? I talked with Kent a couple times & probably only know a small portion of his many contributions to the Healey world. It would be great to hear more

Several years ago, in light of how many of us are passing away, we decided to do obituaries only on prominent persons from Healey history and the club founders. Otherwise the magazine would be half full of obits every month.
