It was two years tomorrow. I still miss her. Her time on this planet was way too brief.
I played this song for Mel Maupin at the track after the races I think the week after he died. I can't listen to this song without thinking of Mel, Jackie and the love ones we have lost in recent years.

Today (Sept.1) is my Dad's Birthday. He would have been 95 and he saw it ALL!! When he was born, lamplighters would go around every night to lite the gas powered streetlights. He told me that in the 20's there was talk about T.V.'s but he knew that he would never live to see it.A Man on the Moon? That was Buck Rodgers stuff. When I got the news of my Mom's passing, we were in line at Stockton. for the '03 BCRA/USAC opener. We had just purchased the '02 USAC W/S championship cars, the rides of my life!! I had been about 4/10 behind Yeley in Sat. practice and made some changes that I thought would help.
The 4 of us (My Crew Chief Tom, My Son Billy, Dad and I) went out to the Old Spaghetti Factory. Tom Doesn't drink and Billy was too young so Dad and I sat at the bar and tossed down a few while waiting for our table. We had a great dinner, went back to the motor home in the pits and enjoyed what would be the last carefree night of our lives together. Dad likes to sleep in his recliner at home so we set him up in the front seat of the coach. I'll never forget how much he enjoyed that night and next morning. He awoke at 6 A.M. just in time to see the track come alive. First the kids and parents came in to clean up from the Sat. practice, then he got to watch the BCRA and USAC officals working together ( True Story......Really!!.lol)to set up the pit parking as the sun came up.
We got up, went to breakfast and then came that awful call......
I didn't race that day,a few weeks later a lapper took me out while leading at Eureka and my Midget Career was over. Our pocket books were empty and our hearts were broken. I look back sometimes and wonder, what if? The bottom line my Friend is that our loved ones are always with us. We can't hold them (what I would give to do that!) but they are watching over us and as the song says, we will see them on the other side. We do however have friends still on this side and they are waiting us at Speedways up and down this state and across this nation. You just saw one at Indy, right??!! The landscape down here may be taking a RADICAL change for the better, I should know by Monday and I'll be calling you soon. Take Care my Friend............Ken
