Losing my best friend in July was the hardest thing I ever went through in my life, it's different than say when you lose a grandparent or someone to a lengthy illness, but to get a phone call at 4:17am telling me that my bro is gone sent me on a major downward spiral, especially being out here in Cali & him back home in NJ. I'm sure if you review my thread you'd see I disappeared for a while, I didn't care about anything. I think only 3 or 4 people from here knew about it, Dizzy, Leo, Kurt and I believe Pierre. Dizz & Leo knew first because of the HT thing and we'd text each other about meets & other stuff and when I told them what happened they were both right there for me. Dizzy could relate more because he lost a good bro in the war, but they both offered their support. And I owe a lot to Kurt (ABL) because he's a man of strong faith, and believe me I certainly had no faith at that time, more like hate because why would something like that happen. But he's helped me a lot regain my faith and has made my life a little easier, there's not an hour that goes by that I don't think of my bro. His girl lost everything when he passed, even though they were only together for 3 years, they finally found true happiness and then that had to happen, so I had to be strong for her and his 2 kids, a son that's 19 & a daughter that's 21 from his first marriage. I was a wreck inside, but had to put on a suit of armor for them, and we've all kind of helped each other. When the hurricane rolled through NJ, his girlfriend really lost everything, because she lived in the bottom apartment next to my house, that's how they met BTW.....So her apartment had 4' of water in it, and my bottom floor is just garage & boat house, so since the hurricane I've been letting her stay in my house, I figure my bro would do the same for me and it's just empty for the time being, so I know my bro is looking down on me appreciating that. It'll be 6 months tomorrow and I guaranty that I'll wake up at 4:17am tomorrow morning, I have the past 5 months on the 26th. I don't know if it's my bro waking me up or what, but it's happened and I can't explain it. But like I said, he'll always ride with me and I know one day we'll be together again. But enough of that.... When you're ready to get your car, you'll have a good wealth of knowledge and just keep on asking questions and you'll get your answers, and then you'll be able to put together a sick ride! Speaking of sick rides, the first production C7 Stingray Vin#00001 sold on Saturday for $1.05 million to Rick Hendrick, the owner of Hendricks Racing. I'm surprised Jay Leno let him beat him out for it, but that's CRAZY $$$ just to have #00001 http://www.corvetteonline.com/news/v...r-1-05-million I'll wait till September to get mine for quite a bit less! For my bro.....RIP Brother.....We were always waterman, surf, fish, dive anything to do with the ocean, Kamali'i O Ke Kai (Children of the sea in Hawaiian, I've had it tatted on my arm for 25 years) so there was no question where he wanted to be as well. So we took out his boat and fished one last time at a spot we used fish as kids, and whenever I enter the water, he'll be there. |

John,
What a devotional! Tim would be soooo proud of his Brother, just as I am. John, this will pay big dividends in the end. And you are so right--you and him will be together again. Keep up ALL the good work, and trust in Him! Kurt ABL99...

Thanks guys, yesterday was a day of mixed emotions with it being the 6 month anniversary, and I hate using that word because that should mean something good. We should be getting ready to celebrate his birthday next month instead of this. But with the help of good people like you guys, each day gets a bit better, but I will never feel whole again. He was meant to enjoy my car with me, and he so looked forward to seeing it and riding in it. It made him so proud to show it off to friends back home. I know he's watching from above, but I sure wish he was right behind the wheel, cause he was the only one that I'd let drive my cars & visa versa. But again Kurt, thank you for all you've done for me the past 6 months & RC for always being a constant supporter of my build Without supporters, it doesn't make it as fun. I should have the car back by Tuesday at the latest, so I'll be posting some videos & pics. Really looking forward to feeling all that power, since all I hear from the guys at CMS is what a beast it's become, and it's clicking on all cylinders now! |
