Re: Ron Garey Has Passed
Thoughts and Prayers for Chuck and the family and many friends as they recover from this big loss.
Seems like we were just praying for recovery for Ron. Guess that wasn't God's plan.

Re: Ron Garey Has Passed
Another sad day here, and another friend gone.
Jim C will tell...When Ron Garey talked , you had to listen. Truly a hands on guy, from another era, I hate to say. If Ron needed a T350 , he built one, himself. If he needed Q-jet, he'd build one, and keep fiddling with it until it was perfect. Ron was an entertaining guy too. Also , somewhat of a philosopher . What he said about NHRA, 25 years ago, is coming true, to this day. It's probably been said about them breaking the mold after this guy, but never more true . RIP, my friend..You earned it.
