Keeping A Memory Alive Part 2
Hi everyone, I don't post much, but this needed to be posted. Back in December just before Christmas I lost my best friend my brother Bob. Back in the day Bob owned a Charger that only a owner could love you know the kind, rusted out bucket of love lol. Nothing worked on it, I remember driving 15 miles in a pouring rain with him and myself having to drive with our heads out the window to see because the wipers didn't work lol. Anyway I had asked if anyone had a charger I could get to be painted up to look like Bob's car. [B]Broilermaker [/B](aka Robert) messaged me and said that if I sent him a car he would gladly paint it up for me to look like Bob's car. Needless to say I was and still am speechless with his act of kindness. I asked him what he would charge for his services and he said free of charge. I can not express in words what this means to me. But I would like to thank Robert for keeping a treasured memory alive for me. Also to add to my treasure I recieved in the mail, when I opened the box I also found Robert had included one of his 1 of 1 hand painted lures. Robert you are sooooooo talented. I can not thank you enough for this. God bless. (sorry for the long note but this needed to be said.) Check out these beauties.

Re: Keeping A Memory Alive Part 2
Thank you so very much for the kind words, I felt that this was the least that I could do, I just feel bad that it took me so darn long to get them to you. We are a pretty good community here and I try to build upon what what so many others here have started.

Robert is an artist. I have one of his lures with a matching Hot Wheels that I won here. I will always treasure it. Great job on the Charger, and keeping a fine man's memory alive with a fine display of true art!
Re: Keeping A Memory Alive Part 2
Great work as always Robert and a VERY nice thing to have done but I am not surprised because thats the kind of guy you have proven yourself to be many times over. Congrats Paul on recieving that special gift that will bring you a smile and some great memories everytime you see it.
