A tribute to my father
This for my dad who passed away on the 23rd of October. While he wasn't a member of our board, he made me what I am today by instilling his work ethics, his ideas and his way of life to me. Dad was also car guy in a way, years ago when I was a teenager he purchased a 1969 Dodge Super Bee for me as a reward for three years of labor that I did for him working in his TV repair shop. He loved that car and always said it would be worth something some day, boy I shoud have listened to dad that one time 
At the tender age of 17 I became a die hard car nut, thanks to my dad.
