Back again, for awhile at least

Aloha everybody. My wife took a turn for the worse several months ago in her battle with renal cell cancer. She came home from Tripler for home hospice. My lovely Deb passed away last week. We'll have services in mid July when her boys can come to Hawaii. That's why I've been MIA. Hope to get back into the world of the living and riding again soon.
And, another brother no longer in the wind. My "Fonzie", Ed McClain died of cancer at almost the same time. He lived in Arkansas for 20 years or so, but used to be the "cool guy" in Honolulu with a chopped A10 BSA and a hot chick on the back when I was just 19 and getting into Britsh motorcycles. His "hot chick", now wife Lynette, called just a few days ago to let me know.
Live strong, live well, do good work. Hold your loved ones closer.

Aloha. Kim Weaver (Mecchanica)

It is hard to know what to say when someone loses loved ones. Be strong, remember the good times, immerse yourself in your passion for life. We are all here for but a brief moment in time.
