Never had any interest in shares. A friend of mine finally convinced
me to play the stock market and was giving me very good advice based
on his very successful experience. Went to his funeral last Wednesday.
Diagnosed with cancer on the Tuesday, gone by 6pm Sunday. He was a
year younger than me, just turned 70 this month.
Now this chap could machine up just about any part you wanted for your
rod or restoration. Went up to see his wife and help her out on Monday
and Tuesday evenings. Had a look through his workshop where he had
been restoring a 22 and a 26 Buick. He'd been casting up some bits
ready to machine up and use on the Buicks. Don't know what will happen
to those cars now. Sad loss for the rod and restoration community here.

Yeah,
Shares aren't worth much when the whole company goes down.
I hate to lose a young guy at only 70.
His wife or kids might just try to auction off the cars.
Nobody under 40 seems to give a crap about cars anymore.
He will be missed whether I knew him or not.
