Thanks for everything Gary, and God bless you and Nicki and the rest of your family. I miss you already buddy.

I never met him, but seeing his posts so much on this board and even just seeing his car at the Nats last year just hurts to think about it. Prayers for his family.

I always enjoyed reading his posts. 2 years ago I got a ticket at the dream cruise just before I picked up some mufflers from Doug (Chargermd). He didn't know me at all but he posted to me "Want to see those points disappear" Then he went out of his way to contact the officer that issued the ticket to let it go. I still can't believe this happened. My prayers go out to his wife and family.

Quote: Quote: BTW, donations are a very thoughtful thing, but I am also thinking of some additional tribute to such a great person... perhaps we can organize a Mopar procession for his send off, one last cruise-in for Gary or something along those lines. This is a good idea. Also, when an officer died in Oklahon=ma? a member of Americanrion dot net went to the extreme to get a plaque placed on the hiway. Maybe some one in Mich. can do that.

From day one I knew this guy was someone I wanted to be friends with. We always had a great time together, whether it was with the cars, at the track, dinner with the wives or when he'd come watch my band. He was probably the biggest fan my band had. I remember our first gig, when we finished our set, Gary rushed up to the stage & gave me the biggest "That was AWESOME!!" Except for maybe 2 or 3 gigs, he never missed one. Even on days he was scheduled to work, he made time. That meant so much. He'd call me up sometimes, just to let me know he was listening to my band's CD. There will always be a little sadness with every gig my band plays in the future. There will be an empty spot in the audience where Gary should be standing. Tragedy's like this shouldn't happen to guys like Gary. I miss ya' Bro!!
