Sorry for your loss Keith, I know what you must be going through as I too lost my dad back on 10/19/07. I knew your father briefly from selling him Yenko shirts. I always saw him at the Reunions wearing that Ralley green shirt of his. He will be GREATLY MISSED. I will say a prayer for you and your family. Brian Potter

I just wanted to thank Tom and Rob Clary for driving 4 hours to come say goodbye to a good friend. You two went out of your way to show the Shockley Family how much Jim meant to you and the Car World. I know that this is a sad moment but Jim has to have a smile on his face to see all his friends coming to say goodbye and his Yenko right outside the door ready for a quick getaway. Take care Jim and I know your memory will live on forever. Mark

Pulling up and seeing his RG Y-Camaro was a pleasant surprise! Nothing could convey his true passion for the hobby, like simply seeing his car did...and the crowd last night spoke volumes as well!
Good to see some sYc and Gateway Camaro club members as well...but let's meet on better terms next time, ok!

I have to second that request and thank you for what you and your father did for the Shockley Family and myself. Mark

I would like to thank all of you for your wonderful replies and to all of our friends that came to the wake and funeral. I was really supprised when I saw Rob & Tom clary at the wake and I just want to thank you again! I feel that my dad touched a lot of lives and that makes me very proud to be his son. My dad was my best friend!!! I will continue to show the car that he loved so much. I'll see you all this summer. Keith

Jim Shockley was a great guy and I always enjoyed seeing him at the reunion. There will be a part of the reunion missing without him. God Bless. respectfully Andrew Hinckley

I also share the many members thoughts of what a great loss this is to our community.
Keith, I am sure your Father would be very proud to see you carry on the family tradition and I look forward to seeing you at the Reunion. My Son is also my best friend (and fellow car-guy), so I can appreciate your feelings of loss.
