Sad News to report!
My friend Mark DeCarlo passed away August 11, 2022 at the age of 67 years old, Sunrise Florida.
It's shame, so young, he had Mass Heart Attack, more than likely a Stroke, and didn't realize what his body was telling him.
So I know it's a man thing, if we don't feel good, it will pass why go to the doctor and sit and wait while not feeling well in the office, we all feel that way.
His started on Tuesday, he didn't feel good, had heart burn and terrible headache, and on Thursday it didn't get any better, he was told go to the hospital, but we know better, it will pass, and he passed away in the afternoon.
Remember he was 67 years old, not over weight, and active life.

Mark, just like myself had recently retired and was enjoying his new found free time, He very much enjoyed his C7 Z06 attending cruise events and watching the Corvette Racing Team in action. I'm so sorry Mark didn't heed the warning signs he was experiencing. As my friend, the original poster stated let this be a wake up thought to anyone experiencing symptoms, don't wait, get a doctors opinion!

I’m so sorry for your loss. My friend Mark also passed of a massive heart attack a couple weeks back at age 65. He was my barber since I was a teenager and a big car nut like me, so we had developed a great friendship over the last 27 years. The local show we’d go to together every single year was yesterday. I felt lonely, even though I was surrounded by many other friends. So this was the only way I could have my buddy with me at the show. RIP to all our friends and loved ones who are no longer with us.
