[Dave Turner]

Gene, in this incredibly inadequate space, we say, farewell and Godspeed.

We want to wish you "good luck" once more, as we prepare to meet in competition.
We want to say "thank-you" for welcoming each and every racer into the "family"
We want to invite you to our home to repay even a small part of your kindness.
We want to thank-you for reminding everyone that having FUN was the real reason we suffered through those rainy weekends.

We wish we had shared all these things with you Mr. Emes.

We will miss your upbeat, sunny attitude towards every day at the track, your humble, yet assured greeting for an opponent in victory or defeat; for being a generous and caring man in every way.

We WILL tell you, when next we meet, how much we missed the time we were apart.


Cathy and Dave Turner
