John, is there a gesture we forum members that briefly met Dave can extend to his family without being intrusive in there time of grief?
He was a great addition to our West Coast events.
Gary, if ya read this, anything we can do at our next event to honor Dave?

Ralph - you read my mind. You have mail.

Bob - Dave wasn't the European film-director guy. Dave was a racer who just moved to Las Vegas and he came to one of our races, and was going to continue in the series once he got more settled.

I'm totally in shock over this. You'd have a hard time finding a such a nice guy. Dave was truly a class act.

John- Please count me in on any group arrangement

If you all would be interested in a buying a brick at the Corvette Museum in Dave's name we can probably get in touch with the museum to set up a fund and you all can call and make a donation at the musuem.

Small brick is $100
and Medium brick is $600

We have about 10 willing to do something here so probably a small brick will do.

I can make the call to the museum if you guys say the word

Edgar, please contact me when you get a chance. Sametime or IM or whatever. You can count on Team Panuzzo (me, Chris and John). Let me know what you need from us. I think Gary is sending flowers on behalf of the WCCC.

Ralph - got your e-mail. I ordered the flowers today through a local flower shop: Blooms of Wayne. Nice folks and they will deliver to the funeral home by 2 p.m. tomorrow.

This is not an enjoyable thread but it is good to see so many who want to honor Dave. I only wish that he could have spent more time with us - I know we would have benfitted greatly from his presence at the WCCC.

Gary
