I have copied this info (below) from the Goldwing forum where i first met Mark . He was from the Panama Beach area. Mark Bodiford passed today ( Xtracho ) from Lizzie Bodiford, I don't even know what to say, my sweet, amazing, hard working dad Mark Bodiford passed away today. You were and always will be my number one. I looked up to you so much and respect you. It will not be the same without you here. I miss you and I will make you proud while you are watching over me. I love you so much and I always will. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I messaged her as she replied they don't have all the information, but that he was somehow involved in a traffic accident and passed on. This is Lizzie's home page: https://www.facebook.com/ElizabethBodiford?fref=ufiMark's username on the forum here is xtracho

I can not get the link posted to the accident information . He was riding his 1998 Honda ,which I believe was his Valkyrie .

Am thinking he was the fellow that went South to Panama or somewhere a lot? I always enjoyed reading his writings and everyone here is correct....he had a profound love of his family and wasn't scared to mention it. That is a good man in my book. So very sorry to hear about this. I really hope they find out the cause of the incident. Prayers for his family.

I'm very sorry for your loss. I pray for the family's healing. I remember seeing his post with the picture of his family and remembered he wanted to get together with some of us pan-handle Valk brothers. Sorry we couldn't make it happen.

Now Im depressed it always hurts when a fellow Valkyrie rider passes on. Possible heart attack possibly? Said he went off the highway and hit the median head on Is this right? The man was obviously a very good rider and knew what he was doing. Just a thought. Anyway brother I never knew you personally but just from this board RIP you will be missed.
