VetteVet update
I PM Vet the other night on a electrical question I had and he responded. I hadn't seen him on here for awhile. I know he is one of our main go to guy's on electrical items so I feel as though I should inform every one of his current situation.
This was his reply: Quote:
Just thought you all would like to know. God Bless Vet

Re: VetteVet update
I noticed he hadn't been posting. You never know why.
I know you are a good guy who enjoys helping people. I'm sure you were all the help your wife could want in her time of need. May she rest in peace and may you live on for the both of you.

The details and personal stuff, yes. But friends tell friends once they know the bad news of another friend.

If he hadn't of told me I wouldn't have posted it. I wouldn't have know. I figured if he told me he was OK with me posting it. He didn't say not to. I did it totally out of respect for him and his wife who I meet several years ago, I invited him to eat lunch with our local truck club at our monthly meeting that day since they where in the area. I felt like it was the right thing to do so other's could pay their respects to him.

Re: VetteVet update
Thanks for the update Andy. I was wondering last week why we hadn't heard anything from him lately. I always learn a lot from his posts.
And to VetteVet, if he's "listening", I'm very sorry to hear about your wife. Hurry back. We miss you. Jim |
