Tim Novoselski 1951-2013

Tim Novoselski, former editor and owner of RER magazine, the US based rental industry publication has died at the age of 62. He passed away at home in McCall, Idaho, after a long battle with cancer.

Novoselski first worked for RER, which was then owned by his father-in-law James Gartland, in the mid-1970s following his graduation, but then moved to Idaho to take over the McCall Star-News, which he ran with his wife Denise until 1979. They then returned to Los Angeles to work for Miramar Publishing - RER’s parent company - with Novoselski taking over as editor of the magazine.
A year later Gartland died and the Novoselskis took over the management of the Miramar business.
