Historical society tiff settled
Group’s leader gives up battle for control
DIXON – Bob Gibler, the longtime president of the Lee County Historical Society, gave up his fight to stay at the helm Tuesday.
On Nov. 13, Lee County resident Pat Gorman beat Gibler 9-8 in the election for president. A couple of days after the meeting, however, Gibler informed Gorman that he didn’t accept the outcome.
Gibler, a Lee County Board member and former Dixon mayoral candidate, convinced the society’s board to hold another election, which was set for Tuesday evening.
