I'll try to get something put together next week. Way behind and out of time this week. Already told the wife she's going on vacation with her family without me next week. Too much to do, too little time.

We hate leaving everyone hanging but once the family has time to think Mandie and David will let everyone know how to go forward. You can still send to the bank or David or use my website. Either way you will get a response and once we get the decals they will be sent out.

NORTON -- Christopher D. ``Chris' Wertman, 38, passed away Saturday, July 31, 2010 as the result of a house fire.

He was a lifelong resident of the greater Akron area. His professional careers included computer systems architect and all around computer wizard, plumber and race car builder and driver, known in the racing community as, Chris ``Drooze' Wertman. Chris was a devoted and loving son and father who beamed when proudly speaking of his children. He was truly passionate about his interests and his family and always maintained a never-give-up attitude. He will be greatly missed by his family and many friends. As one close friend said, ``If you are lucky, you will meet someone like Chris once in your lifetime.'

Preceded in death by his grandparents, Rollin and Frances Snowball, John and Freda Lombardi, Chris is survived by his father, David Wertman; mother, Linda Snowball; stepfather, Francis Stoughton; sons, David (Spongemonkey) and MAXimillian (Bugs) and daughter, IsaBella (Boo-Boo Kitty) and many other relatives and friends.

Calling hours will be Thursday, August 5, 2010 from 4 to 8 p.m. at the Campfield-Hickman-Collier Funeral Home, 566 W. Park Ave., Barberton 44203. A memorial service will be held for family and friends at the funeral home on Friday, August 6, 2010 at 10 a.m. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made at any 5th 3trd Bank Center to the Chris Wertman Memorial Fund for the benefit of his three children.

Just a quick "thank you" to the many of you who have already donated to the fund. Each will shortly receive a note acknowleding your wonderfully gracious gifts.

When the decals are ready, we will let everyone know how to get them.

But once again the drag racing community is standing tall and being very gracious in their support for Chris' young children. I am humbled to know that Chris had such a profound and I expect, lasting effect on you all.

Well I have to go now. I am on my way to work on some "secret squirrel" stuff for the Mega Maniac. I can't tell you what we are up to, or what will happen, but I do suggest that you look for us in Indy.

Thanks Again!
