You all know Fred who came from that other Corvette forum and decided to start this forum for those of us who care more about our cars than rules and vendors feelings that get hurt leading to you-know-what! Well, Fred has had some rough times recently as his Dad had been sick for a couple of years and finally passed on 12-31-08. So my prayers go out to Fred and his family and I hope he is doing well with the sadness and loss. I just thought those of you that know Fred should know. He has gone out of his way to help others on both forums and would probably give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. He is that kind of guy. It's a sad day
