Jim and Ladonna Hughes lost their 30 year old Son suddenly while they were at Barrett-Jackson. He was House sitting for them. I don't know what to say but I wanted the Members here to know. I'm very sorry Jim and Ladonna. Were here for you.

LaDonna & I want to thank all you guys for your support. Troy was able to come back to the reunion with us and celebrate my birthday while there. I will always remember the 2 passes he made in the Deuce, he was so excited. He was also a car guy who monitored this board regularly. He was not only a son but a BEST friend. We are in shock and already miss him terribly. Fortunately he passed quickly and did not suffer. We rec'd the news from our younger son Sat while in Scottsdle and returned home immediately. He was a huge Dale Earnhardt fan therefore a memorial has been set up in his name with the Earnhardt Foundation/ Feed the Children and donations can be made on line if anyone wishes. Sorry for the long post, I have been trying to learn from Charley and keep it short, but needed to ramble.

Thanks again, Jim & LaDonna

Jim and Ladonna, The board seems to be losing to many of its younger folks way to early. Our thoughts and prayers are with you from Hawaii.

Jim, I am so sorry for your loss. I remember the conversations we had with Troy when he was finishing high school and contemplating a career in the automotive business. And then talking with him at last years reunion and learning that he had followed his dream and was in the auto business. You and LaDonna should be so proud of him.

Sincerly,
Don Stowers
