[DeTomaso] Sad News

[Bill Lewis]

OK, so some smart dude (or dudette) needs to compile all these emails somehow, and make something to give to Bev, or to the whole community.  These have been great.

Welcome to the modern world:  eulogies by internet.

> Just caught the thread on the death of Gary Hall - very sad. Gary was the first vendor I had contact with 
> when I purchased my Pantera in ' 99 & he recommended that I purchase his "total package" of literature
> as a first step in my Pantera experience. I was surprised & happy to get such a variety of literature in one
> package as well as one of his catalogs! At the time I didn't think I would ever have the opportunity to meet
> Gary personally as I didn't normally travel in my work & Kansas is more than a short distance from his 
> shop. This all changed a few years ago when I decided to attend one of the TWS events with the Space 
> City Club in Texas. As luck would have it, Gary attended that year with his car & helped us tear up the 
> track all weekend. It was here that I had the pleasure of meeting the man personally & what a great guy
> he was! He was the first person I had talked to that was able to identify my unknown spoiler as a "Gran
> Turismo" type & give me a history on who had built & sold them in the early Pantera aftermarket. This
> information alone made my trip to Texas worth it & the track time was just "icing on the cake" as we
> all had a great time! I'm sure the Pantera community will never forget Gary - I know I won't.
