Folks Of Interest Hamb Member Emeritus

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by HOTRODPRIMER, Sep 16, 2016.

  1. You know, you look through old threads and it is alarming how many folks are marked as banned?
     
  2. There were definitely a few who got to a mindset of 'I'm important to this place. I can weigh in and tell Moderators/Admin how things should be done. The H.A.M.B. should never change or change the ways I want it to'.
     
    Just Gary and jim snow like this.
  3. I dunno? I look at some of the names and go hmm?

  4. Yeah, George got banned, he then moved over to Hot Rod Craft and then just dropped out of site but he is still very much alive.HRP

  5. Seems like I'm hearing of way too many friends that have passed away lately. I just found out that Bob Slavens (@BrewtownPrez), the president of the custom '49-'51 Mercury club Brewtown Cruisers passed away. So sad. Rest in peace Bob..........
    If any of you mods that pop in here occasionally would change Bob's member status to Member Emeritus it would be appreciated. Thank you. E

  12. I've seen it posted on Instagram a number of times this morning that @Doc. (Kevin Huston) passed away over the weekend. Apparently he was only 61.

    Condolences to his family and many friends on here.

  14. I miss LM14, Steve Park's posts. Building a really nice 32 5W, and a couple others, while fighting off cancer. Great guy, great inspiration. He passed June 8th.

    I haven't read the entire thread but, let's not forget BRUCE LANCASTER (RIP).
    He was a fountain of flathead knowledge.

    Even though it's sad, I appreciate that this thread keeps their memory alive. With that I would like to say RIP to Doc.. and I would also like to mention my buddy Joe Teague aka Joe Creep whom we lost in April of 2019. Joe ruled and was taken far too early. It sucks. He deserves to be remembered here and everywhere. If you wanna take a gander at his smooth mug go watch the Mad Fab videos for Stormin Bonneville or The Car That Ate My Brain II on youtube.

    So occasionally I read old threads and see a member that hasn’t posted for several years,
    Just now @pasadenahotrod.
    is it appropriate to ask on this thread or is there another thread to do that ? Thanks

    Loss of loved ones is hard. Sad for those left behind. But we're grateful for the times we've had. It's been good. Thanks to everyone... for everything.

    I always hope to see them back...many times members just tire of things, or perhaps have life changing events and move on...but yes, I often think of where these hoodlums have gotten to as so many had so much to offer...

    Perhaps post in a Thread they have posted and pose the question has anyone heard from so and so...many times another will chime in or alert them someone's thinking of them or has a question...

    I’m starting to feel like we might have to add Tfeverfred to this list eventually if anyone gets any further information.

    It’s just a feeling I have, no confirmation but it seems like he has disappeared from all of the forums he frequented not just the HAMB.
    His online presence is nil now.


    Last time I heard from him (message)was that he was recovering from a stroke.
    I miss him.
