I know the industry will never know exactly all that he did for it but he really loved it and more importantly he loved the people of it. Keeping you in mind has definately helped us through some of the hard times. He truely got his kicks going out to the track and setting up our spread and just being a part of the action. For us it was an excellent experience to be there with him and having people stop by and some even that would be looking for us. I will never be able to remember all that he has taught me and I could never tell anyone exactly what he means to me but I can say that I couldn't be more thankful to be able to call him my father. Thank you all http://obits.dignitymemorial.com/dignity...amp;mid=5344701
