You can tell a lot about a person by who and where they hang out... and what folks say after they are no longer around.

FR has lost a good friend, and this nation, a solid citizen and a foul-weather patriot. RIP Brian.

FRom the FR at Nascar weekly thread from Michigan.

This thread is dedicated to the memory of 68-69 Tonkin Gulf Yatch Club...
Rest in peace Brian.
Thank you for your service and your friendship.

I’ve probably gotten five pings for this thread. I normally don’t ignore pings, but this time, I just found it too hard to read.

I didn’t know him, never posted to him, but I read a lot of his posts, and know he was worthy of everything good.

All I can do is wish him Godspeed, and ask that his family be comforted.

RIP Brian.

I knew ya just a little, but you helped me when I needed some.

Well done Norm, I find it most impressive that an internet community such as ours can spit and fight on just about any topic, however, we all pull together and support our own when the times are tough.

Oh nooooo!  I think about him a lot and wondered if he made it or not.

I sure will miss him and his threads.  He was a true Veteran!!

Very nice words and dedication.

Mr. Tonk now knows how much he was treasured.
