I never had the pleasure of meeting him, his EX was a 7.3......... nuff said.

Please show a unity of support and offer up your thoughts and prayers to his wife and his 2 young girls.


Thanks!

Sorry to hear this.

Didn't know the man, but I know the type, and they are never with us long enough.

Thoughts and prayers to the family.

We are all only as the mist and dew, rising from a grassy field in the morning, being burned off by the rising of the Sun. May he be with the Son of Glory forever and a day and that the saddness that his family (and we) feels will soon turn to calm and joy. For we not only have today to think about, but the forever. May his new 7.3 have the best mods and the loudest pipes and smoke that is given in Glory.



My prayers to his family for healing and comfort.

I had the honor of meeting him and his family a couple of times at the Excursion Rallies when they had them in Gatlinburg couple years ago. He was a very nice person. Just like everyone I have met at Riffraff. Meet them 1 time and it seemed like I had known him for years. He will be missed.
