Default Sad News

I have been gone is the last few days and today I learned that a good friend I have purchased most of my Chevelle parts from for the last 25 years took his own life last thursday. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and his business partner and friend in this time of sorrow and loss.

Sorry about your friend Ray ,that is something I will never understand .To me life is good no matter how bad it gets ,Im sorry for his family too. The saddest part is the loved ones left behind suffer from now on and never understand why it happened .

Ray, what a sad moment for you, and his family. It is hard when someone takes their own life. Like flash said, it is hard for those left behind to understand. Many people who are suffering on the inside never show it on the outside. I hope that he is now at peace.

The busineess partner of the same business was just found dead in his house only 30 days after his partner passed away. Hard to believe. So Gold Eagle Classics is for sale or will be closed. The wife is trying to sell the business or will sell everything at our April swap meet here in Portland. Hard to believe.

Sounds like he drank himself to death. He hadn't come to work for a week and the police would not go in his house when the first call came in to check on him. Finally after a week they went in and found him.
