Mrs SP, I never got to meet SP personally but I've known folks like him over the years. They are the Salt of The Earth and anyone who meets them is the better for it. You haven't lost him, you never will. I have this picture of him in my mind.... up there, hands on hips, asking some angel "Now where'd you learn to fly son?".
You can be sure he'll be waiting for you with open arms when it's your turn. Makes me smile just to think of it.

Mrs SP

First of all--let me PLEASE offer mine and my families belated condolences--things here have not been the best--and I haven't really kept up
I have followed Dinos' comments thru much of this--and then read many of SP older posts(since I am relatively new to this board)as i read all this I can't help but think that I must have know SP--or at least met him--somewhere--somehow--especially since I am a 3d generation driver originally from Central Florida--and both y'all use Orlando--as S/N locations(and anymore that cover a wide area)--but as I read this post--I see him being referred to as JR--so I must ask--and understand if you do not want to answer(at least not publically)did he have a white flat top 359 back in the early to mid 80's did he ride--and possibly have some good friends out in Union Park in those days?
Please forgive the intrusion--but I cannot help but ask--if he(both of you actually)is who I am thinking of? Either way once again PLEASE accept our sincerest sympathies(although a little late)
thank youdino6960 Thanks this. -
Good Morning Everyone, With all the past and present posts, for the love and caring, that you all feel and felt for Southern Pride, it makes my heart lighter and will help to keep me going. As I said in previous post to you all, I can still see him at the computer, pecking away, trying to get what he wanted said, out to you all. He would have been so honored that you all took some of his advise and put it to use. He loved the big trucks, and that was all he wanted to do, get well and return to driving. Now he drives the big highway in heaven, sometimes as co passenger to you all, but ever watchful on all of us. Have a great day, Mrs Southern Pride
dino6960, teddy_bear6506, Gears and 4 others Thank this. -
You are three for three: Yes he did ride, a Harley and we did live in the Union Park area of Orlando, and yes to the 359 also.
dino6960 Thanks this.
