I just spoke with Darrel Hampton, who runs the weekly, sunday Fountain Hills, Arizona car show,,,and he informed me that Jan Bruggeman has lost his battle with the cancer he has been fighting for the past several months, and went peacefully in his sleep last night ... 03-17-2015


Jan came to Arizona from the Chicago area, and worked as a Body Shop Estimator for Van's Chevrolet in Scottsdale, Earnhardt Ford in Chandler, and last worked for Korte Chevrolet in Scottsdale until his retirement.

Jan bought his purple 1999 Prowler in late 2001 as I recall, and was a regular AZ. Prowler Group and a POA member who contributed yearly donations to this website. Jan also helped out many Prowler owners with their problems, and was always ready to answer questions on the board and via PMs/emails/and telephone contact.

Jan's suffering is now over, and I'm sure you will say a prayer for him that his soul can finally rest in peace.

Jan is survived by a sister in Florida, a sister in Virginia, a brother in Chicago, and a brother in Scottsdale.

A fellow outspoken Prowler enthusiast ... he will be sorely missed on the POA and at events.

Prayers go out to his family and friends. RIP Jan ... Prowl on now in Heaven.

RIP Catfish. Jan and AC were instrumental in helping me purchase my Ram SRT10 from a gentleman in AZ. He was always willing to help others out when he could.

Catfish will be missed. He was always willing to help new people. His spelling was the worst.

Very sad to hear of Jan's passing. He advised me on several Prowler related issues and helped to locate a OEM radiator when I needed one. He was always willing to talk on the phone and try to help you out. I never met him in person but he was willing to share his knowledge of the Prowler and help myself and many others on POA.
You will be missed Jan, RIP.

Like many here at POA, I never met Jan but got a sense of who he was through his posts. We communicated through PM a few times.

I looked forward to reading his posts and know he was a benefit to the Prowler community.

Jan's presence will be missed. Rest in peace.

RIP Catfish. I can't believe how many folks that I know have passed away since the first of the year. Life is short, so enjoy it while you still can.

Sad to hear of Jan's passing. He's in a better place now.
One good thing was that many had an opportunity to wish him well before he passed. Sometimes we never have that chance. RIP Jan.

Knew this was coming but it's still hard to hear. As I've stated many times Jan was the 1st guy to help me here and I'll always remember that. We exchanged tons of PM's and I'll miss that. Shout out to AC for the nice info he posted. I got such a kick out of Jan's posts just one time as this is meant for no one and to insert a little humor on this sad day..................Eat Me...............................................RIP Jan buddy...
