damn... that sucks... he doesn't look that old, either.

Sounds like a real loss... but the legacy comes from the memories you all can share.

I took that photo at one of our shop nights two years ago, so he still looked pretty good. He has been in and out of hospitals for the past year. His wife Linda brought him to our March Corvette Club Meeting two weeks ago because he wanted to come so bad. He had lost a ton of weight and I knew then he didn't have long, but he was in great spirits and joking with us about this and that. He got a kick out of the speaker we had come to the meeting that night talking about Dr. Dick Thompson and he personally knew Dick and was beaming about that. That was on March 9th! Here today, gone tomorrow!
