Terry, it came out beautiful framed, I'm sure that the family will love it and I know Bob would have too.

Yes , mine pic is a spy shot. I was in the museum with Bob and I asked if I could take some shots of the cars Porsche had brought over for RennSport II (the Museum was crowded with them as was the Race Shop). Bob said that he didn't allow pictures, he winked, smiled, and turned and walked to the Race Shop for a few minutes.

The last time I saw him alive, I arrived at the dealership later than I planned so I missed lunch. So he had taken mechanics from the Mercedes dealership out to eat. Afterword we just hung around the Race Shop, I think that was where he felt most comfortable. He was weak, but he was never going to give in to his health. Later on the phone he said was feeling better. I think it was a week later he was gone.

I have this flag from Watkins Glen hanging over my tool box. It gives me a smile when I remember my friend.
