I just opened my Facebook page and that's the first thing I see on my feed. He was one of our own here. And he was a longtime family friend and a damn good race

I don't know what to say.

Dang. These stories are becoming way too numerous.
Sorry for the loss of your friend Gino.

Sorry for your loss Gino. These things are tough...
My friend Wayne, a antique car restorer, just passed after a bout with cancer. He was the first person in my life who shook my hand and told me goodbye before dying.

Damn, this is why I also hate answering my phone anymore. He was a great racer, race car builder. Nitromater member and much much more.
RIP my friend.

Never had the pleasure of meeting him in person but always very much enjoyed his posts and sharing of his obviously extensive base of knowledge and experience. Rest in peace sir.
