Dawn Patrol / World member, Update 2/16/12 see post #52 Options

[Als914]

I received a phone call this morning from the men's club president where Lew Mengle (shulew3) and I are golf members to inform me that Lew passed away from an apparent heart attack some time Tuesday night. There was concern when he didn't show up or call for his round of golf on Wednesday. The police were called in to investigate and in entering his home they found him passed away in his bed.

Lew came over Teusday morning to do some work on his 914. He had a love/hate relationship with it because he loved to drive it but hated everything that went wrong with it. He loved the outings with all the 914 members and at seventy nine he could manage to keep up. He was a regular member of the Dawn Patrol, 914 World and a great friend...He will be deeply missed.

Reminder update for Lew's celebration of life.

Below is an excerpt from the members at Tahquitz Creek Golf Resort:

"I would like to thank everyone yesterday who participated in the 50/50 raffle on behalf of Lew Mengle. Lee Tatilian was the winner of $360.00 while the Navajo Ministries will receive the same in Lew's name. Special thanks to Frank Rhode Jr, Fred Krecklow, and Roy Cisneros for helping out with the Raffle and golf shirts.

As a reminder we will have a Celebration of Lew's Life on Monday, March 12 at 3:00pm in the Traditions Cafe' at Tahquitz Creek. Lew's family will be present and will enjoy hearing from us about our relationship and experiences with Lew. Those of you who have spouses who would like to attend are certainly welcome. There will also be members of the 914 Porsche Club in attendance.

Hope to see you there."
