Its with heavy heart that I am informing everyone about Jules Yatzkan better know to us as Quirkyguy001 . I first met Jules as a customer, wanting to go faster so I installed my performance package on his bike. Later we became good friends and we talked every week. He drove a truck for a living and was gone a lot but usually came home on weekends. He would stop by about once a month or so to catch up. He loved to go fast and race everyone especially Harleys ,the new Valkyries and the 1800 gold wings. Jules had battled cancer and won the fight after a few years. When I first met him he was just starting to ride his Valkyrie again and he only had about 8k miles on his bike at that time. It probably doesn't have 10k on it now but he would usually stay local on his rides. Jules called me on Sunday morning a we talked for about 20 minutes he was on his way to Indiana to pick up a load on Monday morning. He got to feeling bad in the middle of the night and was taken to the hospital. He had a major heart attack while in the hospital and died Monday morning. My thoughts a prayers go out to all his friends and family.

Really sorry to hear this, always feel downhearted when friends and family pass. Now you will miss his visits and friendship. Prayers to you and family from South Texas.

Sorry to hear this, Bob. There seems to be more of this than normal going on . I've been to two wakes this month and have another friend not doing well at all.
Good thoughts to his family.

Really sorry to hear this.  It does sound like he was able to do the things he liked to do and went quickly. There seems to never be a good time and way to go but when it's mine maybe that's what I would prefer. |
