I received the last Christmas card that I'm going to get from Rj today. It was very thoughtful of Bev his widow to go ahead and send them out. Thank you very much. Rj was a special dude. RIP brother.  cooldude

Us too. I saw Andrea open up a letter and start crying. I asked what was wrong and she handed it to me. Thank You Bev, that was very thoughtful.
Miss you RJ.  Cry

Sounds like Mrs. RJ is a class act just as her husband. Makes me wish I knew him not just from the Internet.

And I was thinkin' I'd just cruise for a while
A fork in the road brought a new episode
Don't you know...

Tracy and I received our card today, RJ leaves me with some great memories of the time we spent together at gatherings and phone calls when I needed help figuring out any mechanical problems....he will be missed.
