About the Queen City Chapter of the NCRS
Welcome to the Queen City NCRS serving the Cincinnati and surrounding Tri-State Area
Several Corvette fans gathered to celebrate the significance of Americas finest sports car, in doing so they started the Queen City NCRS Chapter. Many years later we have developed into a tight knit group of friends, growing and learning all the way. We look forward to our monthly meetings. Prospective members are welcomed and encouraged to attend. See the Calendar for date and location.
With a variety of members any Corvette related answer is only a phone call away. We take part in road trips, picnics, technical seminars; not to mention our annual swap and chapter meets. Along with group trips to NCRS Regional and National activities there is always fun to be found within our great chapter. Look through our website, and mark our next meeting on your calendar we are looking forward to meeting you.

Gary Ralph Mortimer Obituary
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gary Ralph Mortimer on August 26, 2024. Gary was born on February 12, 1941, and grew up in his family’s DOT Food Grocery in New Baltimore, Ohio. He lived within a mile of the store his entire life.
Gary was a Civil Engineer and Commercial Construction Project Manager by trade. Gary helped found the National Corvette Restorers Society (NCRS) in 1974 and served eight years as the club’s first President. He loved his decades spent as the Membership & Merchandise Chairman. Later, he was honored to be a member of the National Corvette Museum Hall of Fame and Bloomington Gold Corvette Hall of Fame. He attended every Indianapolis 500 race since 1948, a total of 76 in a row!
Gary is survived by his wife of 61 years Linda Sharon; his son Eric (Ann) Mortimer; daughter Melissa (Mark) Louderback; granddaughters Mariah (Slade) Lutz; Molly Louderback; and Hannah Mortimer; and grandson Lucas Mortimer.
Gary loved his family and friends, Corvettes & Avantis, trains, toys, root beer, the Indy 500, cats, and ice cream with friends.
A Celebration of Life Service will be held on Wednesday September 11th at 11am at The Presbyterian Church of Hamilton, 23 S. Front Street, Hamilton, OH 45011.
