Thanks Ken, I will pass that on.

On a good note and with some humor, I talked with some mutual friends last night. He raced his stock car this weekend and unknowingly to him, all the other racers planned to 'let him win' (I believe he is high points holder anyway) and on the last turn they would back off just enough to let him take the flag. They were to all exit the track and go down pit road where fireworks and a memorial was planned allowing him to circle the track in memory. As luck would have it, his motor blew on the last turn and he was unable to finish!!!! They did what they planned anyway. Adding insult to injury, on the way out of the track, his motorhome dumped a tranny. My understanding is he just fell apart laughing. Laughter is the best medicine!

I plan on visiting him this weekend and will pass on everyones kind words. From one car guy to another, I am sure this means more to him then I know. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/flag.gif[/img]
