when i got home yesterday and turned this box on, the first thing i saw was this post. needless to say i was in shock. i had to shut it down and walk away. i only had just met John at the Ga. rally and enjoyed my time talking to him. we had a funny conversation about the fact that i had cost him quite a bit of money last yr as it was me who turned him on to the Rocket deal. now i am wishing i never had. i know that even if he had not gotten the Rocket he would probably still have been in Cali for the visit, but then i have to wonder. we have had a few moderaters around here and some have found it to be to much but here was a guy that took the time it must take to do that job and did it because of the love of the site. i am trully saddened by this and have to believe that him and Shep will be riding the big road together in that small group of Triumph riders that have went before. R.I.P. good Friar, you will be missed here but we all look forward to seeing you in the next world and sharing that ride with you and Larry!!! this is a very sad day at B.A.com very sad indeed. my prayers and condolences to his family, may they find peace in knowing that he was where he wanted to be doing what he wanted to do
