Driving back from picking up the Turbo from Joe at Series 9, I called my good friends Ray & Judy Alden, we had been trying to get together for lunch for some time now, Ray bought his 914-6 brand new. Judy gave me the sad new that Ray passed yesterday, she said he had been pretty sick the last few weeks.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)
Most of you didn't know Ray, but I'm sure many of you had seen his 914-6..

Ray & Judy have owned many Porsches (including a 904) over the years and were very active in PCA before it went into the crapper, and won many awards, he not only councoursed (and often won) his 914-6, but wasn't afraid to flog it at an Auto-X..

He was a greeat friend who lived life to its fullest and will be missed very much. When I grow up, I want to be like Ray...

Ray & Judy were very active in the wooden boat World, and the last boat they restored and played with was also in a book on Chris Craft, this was my favorite of theirs..

Did Ray have a brother in Vermont? In the 70's I had my 914-6 serviced at Al Aldens Porsche dealership in White River Junction,VT. Al was keeping some of his brothers cars there and one of them was a 904. Somewhere I have a few photographs of some of the cars rolled out onto the lawn beside the dealership on a sunny day.
