Well very early this morning another part of my world came to an end. My brother Bruce passed away he had just turned 50 on March 21st, our youngest brother went up to see him and found him in his recliner. God must have needed him to build him a Street Rod as that was his passion in life. His street Rods we're built from scratch and demanded not only his best work but also anyone who worked on them with or for him. He loved my Prowler and all it stood for, when I took it to a show & shine over where he lived and the judges wouldn't even look at it for whatever petty reason, a week went by after the show and a bunch of his friends came by his shop to BS and one of them brought this other fellow well one thing led to another and my Prowler came up in conversation. The new guy made the mistake of saying that it shouldn't have even been aloud in the show & shine as it wasn't a Hot Rod and the guy who owned it was just a big show off. Well he left my brothers yard very quickly while he still had legs to run with lol. It's memories like that and all the fun we had together over the years and our cars that are helping me get through this day and for the days ahead. He was a member on here (Billy Bob) he was the quiet kind of guy who just enjoyed reading all of our tips, comments and just everything in general with this site. If there is internet up in Heaven he will be reading this I will miss him very much!! goodbye my brother PK

Keith, I'm sorry to hear about your brother. I lost one of my brothers 8 years ago (only 37) and still miss him. Don't ever hesitate or miss a chance to remenise about the years you spent together. His son, my nephew, has grown up (17) and daughter (21 and married to a great guy) to become great joys in my life. My brother was a real outdoorsman and adventurer. I take his son on several fishing trips a year and we are going on one this next week. He reminds me so much of his dad (which is hard) but is a great kid. Don't let the memories fade. Luv ya man.

Keith.........we are so sorry to hear of your brother's passing. I'm sure you are right....God had better plans for him and he is now in a place where he is no longer hurting. I, too, lost my younger brother (a week before his 38th birthday) three years ago and I still miss him very much. Time heals, but the memories will live forever.Our deepest condolences to you and your entire family. CJ and Bob

Very sorry. I know how you feel. My brother pulled into a gas station and died right there. At least he died at home in his favorite chair. I miss him alot, he sounds alot like your brother. I look at life this way, some people live more in 40 yrs then others do in 80. Always remember the good times, and that should help right now. If there is anything I can do just ask. My thoughts are with you and your family------------------
