It is with a sad heart that I announce the loss of Jim Daggs, #695 of Ackley Publishing, Ackley, Iowa.  Jim was always a great contributor to the monthly bundles and of course the driving force behind the fully letterpress printed annual Membership Directory from 2001 to 2018. His constant contributions to the bundles will be missed and the help and encouragement he gave to others is a great loss to the letterpress community. Jim joined the APA in 1999, then served as a Board Director from 2007-2008, Vice President from 2009-2010 and President from 2011-2014. He ended his service to the group as Mailer from 2017-2018.

There is a limited obituary as quoted below:
