Default Ron Garey passed

Sorry to say that my father passed last night in his sleep

his advice to me as a teen ager was:

2 kinds of people "parts replacers" and mechanics, so be a mechanic.

We are very sorry to hear about your dad. Mr. Garey was an incredibly tough racer. Growing up watching him compete and eventually getting to race with him, we learned a lot about "racing hard." We have wondered about him over the years and always hoped he would make a return to the sport. God Speed RG!

My deepest sympathies to your family. I fondly remember many National Trail races with the Chesrown Olds. Ron was an exceptional racer, God Speed.
