Its with a sad heart that I found out today that Ski has passed away from a heart attack he suffered on Sunday after Big Bear. If you all knew Ski, he was a very good guy and was always at the Manx Club runs with his wife Dottie. Our prayers and thoughts go out to Dottie.

I am sorry to hear about the lost of a fellow buggier.

Does anyone have a picture of Ski?

I sorry I just cannot remember what he looked like or the buggy that he had.

I met Adolf for the first time at Kernville this year and again at Big Bear. I liked him.  So sorry to hear of his passing. His nephew did some major repairs on my truck after the Kernville run. My condolences to his family.

God Bless,
Bob
