The Ford Barn

Greetings all,

I just received word that the current President of the Rogue Valley A's passed away this morning. Bob Wikkerink was a good man and good friend to all who knew him. He played an instrumental role in helping me figure out the top on the '28 when I restored it the first time.

With regards,

Sorry to hear about your loss.

Bob was too young! Did anyone see this coming? I hope Kitsy has some good support there.

Bob was a long-standing member of the Victoria Association. He will be missed. Our thoughts go out to his family.

We have lost 4 in so many months. I talked to Bob at the last meeting as he wanted a 100amp alt. He was in good spirits. I think we were all caught by surprise. He will be missed, as will the others. Dang.

I think Willie Krash is in a better position to do this as he lives in the area. I just found out because my dad is a member of that club.

I know about Dick passing. Who else has passed on from the area?
