I just read that on January 25th, several friends of Stu Harmon got together for a celebration of life.

Cut and paste from FORMER Moparts member Dennis H:

"Celebration of life for Stu today at the Elks in San Mateo. Some of the Canadiens from Nova Scotia (Sandy, Danny) and MidPen folks. Mickey, Jeepmon, Jim Lusk (Central Valley), Rico and some I neglected to mention. Nice. I was sworn to secrecy due to reaching the 250 limit and costs. Golden Gate and a couple of other Clubs there. MOPARTS rejects like me. We raised a few for Stu.

Thanks for posting. It says something for Stu's character by how much he was admired and respected by anybody who met him or (like me) only "knew" him through moparts... that you had to keep it quiet to prevent exceeding capacity of the place.

I don't come here often anymore as moparts has lost a lot of its appeal for me, but Stu was one of the bright spots of this site - I always made a point of reading his posts, and responding if I had something useful to add.

Stu will obviously be missed by many, both here and in the 'real world'. God rest his soul...

I'm glad I have gotten closer to Stu than most guys. I could call him most anytime drop in etc.Our last phone call was really awkward as we both knew it could be the last one.......... This has been a huge loss for me. Stu was the focal point of most, if not all the trips I had made to the Bay area. He was a real character, larger than life if you can believe that. We attended many car shows ...but the real party was at his place the club house. It was a guarantee that he would invite a bunch of local guys over and we would bs about cars politics whatever came up. I still keep in touch with the many guys and gals that I met thru Stu.

I seemed rather fitting that a whole bunch of us were in the bar prior to the service . Sally, Stu's wife came in there and found us .. I couldn't help but think that if Stu was there he would have been right there with us! Maybe in spirit he was! It was also pretty cool ( after the service) we were out in the parking lot beers in hand ....huddling around Joann's superbird.... hood up diagnosing a carb issuie !

I made a weekend out of it hanging out with the guys and fitting in the Turlock swap meet. Picked up a few parts for my super bee. Tried my best not to be sad as that wasn't Stu.

Yup. It was good to see you at both Stu's memorial and Turlock.
