Long-time Akron Railroad Club member and former officer Jim Mastromatteo, 60, died Sunday of heart failure.
Jim had been working at the table of ARRC member Ron McElrath at a local model railroad show when he got up to walk around the show and collapsed.
He served as ARRC secretary between 2016 and 2020. More information will be posted as it becomes available.

He was actually 60, having been born on 5/25/61. I only know that because he was born a month prior to my mother in the same hospital!
I’m very sad about the loss of Jim. He had been a good friend for over 15 years, and he was to thank for a lot of my area railroad knowledge.
