Though I really enjoyed being a part of this community, I've been absent for a couple of years - and will be so from now on. It isn't because of disputes or anything like that. It's been health issues. Have numerous cardiovascular issues, including 2 TIAs, hypertension, etc. Have no strength to do 914 stuff for 4 years now. Now wife has Parkinson's.
So, I ask that my name be removed as leading this forum and replaced with someone who really cares. Never thought the day would come but I'll most likely remove my 914 from the garage where it has sat unattended since 2002. Good luck to all, and at least TRY to keep some of them to original specs.

Sorry to hear, Pat. I'm one of those crusty ones who says stupid stuff all the time. You have always been rock solid. I hope you'll actually stay around. This place often becomes about the people as much as the cars, and you are an important part of us.
I hope your wife does well. I spent the last 3 years of my dad's life taking care of him. Parkinson's is horrible. I just pray she doesn't get the dementia piled on top that I saw. You need to do what's right for you and your family of course. Never forget, you have a few thousand friends here that care, so I hope you'll lean when you need and still hang out. |
