Thanks so much dudes! I haven't been feel'in too great, so these posts, really help with my outlook on life.

 

My brother mentioned last week, "If a man is judged by the number of good friends he has accumulated throughout life, that would make me they wealthiest man he knows". This I know to be true, thanks to all the great people I've met in the slot car community.

 

I have said it before, and I'll say it again. Thanks dudes, you're the best.

Happy B'Day Sano but even though it's your birthday I'm still NOT showing you my latest chassis design!!

Don't worry about it Dave, I'll show it to you, he stole it from me.

Hi Dave,

 

Pam and I both hope that you are finding some rest during your time in the hospital. Your brother is right - when measured in friendships and the number of people who love you, you are indeed a wealthy man. Very few of us ever get to experience the number and quality of relationships you've accumulated over your lifetime, nor can many of us lay claim to a breadth of life experiences that approaches yours. You are a special, one-of-a-kind guy who continues to reap a full harvest from the seeds of kindness you sow every day of your life.

 

Pam and I consider ourselves fortunate to be your friends and to be among the many who have come to love you. Happy Birthday, Dave. Our wishes for you on your birthday are comfort, peace, and as many sunny late afternoons and cool evenings reminiscing about friends and good times as you care to enjoy.

 

Our very best to you,

 

Jim and Pam

Dave, belated Birthday wishes. Take care and see you soon Dude. IT'S YOUR DAY!

I talked to Dave on the phone today- he is out of the Hospital and back home. He sounded like his old chipper self but said he is working to manage his pain.

 

I'd again encourage people to please take a moment out of your day to send Dave a card or note to the above address. Maybe you have a thought or memory from the past that you could share with him to put a smile on his face. Thanks very much.

The love shown to Sano Dave is really inspiring and heart warming to see.

I was looking for this photo from 2005 today because it is one of my favorites.

 

 

Here are some others from the same day.

Take care and get well Dave...

When I talked to Dave on the phone yesterday, he said he was feeling well enough to go to and enjoy the "Time Machine Nationals" retro drag event this past Labor Day weekend at Great Lakes Dragaway.

 

He said he had to duck into the car and run the A/C for a while during the heat of the day (it was quite warm, high 93 degrees,  and humid) but he felt OK in the cooler evening hours when watching the jet dragster show.

Congrats Dave, you made it another year Happy Birthday! =M=

[HarV Wallbanger III]

Great to hear that Dave went to that event. Take care Dude!

[MG Brown]

Some more memories.

When did they start slot car airplane races? 

 

Any picture with Sano Dave in it is worth posting.
