I read Dave's post pretty much as soon as it was posted. Let me say it was a tough day to get thru. As with hundreds of other members I never met Gary in person. I was at events that he was in attendance at (Milan, WPC swap meets, etc), and now I'm sorry I didn't make the effort to introduce myself. I'm a local member and really don't post all that often, but I am here everyday reading with my friends. A few years ago I would never have imagined I could be so upset over a person I never met personally. The net has sure changed all of our lives. Sure there is a lot of bad out there, gonna happen in this big world. But the +'s the net has brought far out weighs the bad. I too will miss Gary's posts. Moparts will never be the same. My deepest sympathies go out to his family and friends. Thanks Gary for the joy you brought to the world.
