Thanks to all for your condolences. My mom passed just before Christmas, but the funeral was postponed to coincide with the family reunion and dad's hometown 125th celebration. This was my mom's last ride and I regret it was mom's only ride in my Phaeton. I drove mom to church one time in my 29 Tudor, and I still wonder if she wasn't more embarrassed than thrilled about that short ride?
Before my dad passed he asked me one time when I was going to bring my Model A home. Regretfully I never got it home in time to give dad a ride.
I wish I had brought my Model A home and worked on it right away rather than let it just sit in storage for years. It's much better to get your cars on the road, and treat your friends and family to rides, than to live a life of regret.
