All Members Must Read This- Tone

[Ms Moncha]

I can't stop thinking about how much Tone meant to all of us. I know that he would not want us to be crying and moping about, all down in the mouth. When I think of Tone, I am reminded of a quote I heard recently that totally describes Tone's philosophy on life:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, 'Atomic Fireballs' in one hand and 'a diet Mountain Dew in the other', body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming "WOO HOO what a ride!"

It was just way to soon, for all of us.

Thank you Laura, I just didn't know what to say that wasn't already said. I never met Tone, but what you just said was pretty much the impression I had of him.

Rest in Peace my friend, you will be missed

Just heard today. I am glad to have met Tone and wheeled with him at Moab.
My ride still sports mods from him. I will think of Tone each time I drive my VX.

Tone was as unique as the VX he loved. Very sad to see him leave so young.
Godspeed, the only wise speed at which to live........

Someone brought it up, but it was never answered. How did Tone pass away?
Peace.
