He will be missed!

That he will! Very few people get to live a life like He did.... Some of us can only dream about what he accomplished!

I am very sad...

I remember we all used to huddle round the ol Black and White and watch many of his stunts.

I still remember the Snake River failure.

I is/was an insperation to us all.

He will be missed.

He was my idol as a kid and will be missed here. I even tried to imitate some of his stunts as a kid on my bike and had some of the same results, many broken bones lol. I think the dumbest thing I tried was trying to jump my dads Buick Electra. that one really hurt. k:
