Tranny John"s Saltsman Wife

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by ritpichette, Nov 19, 2012.

  1. To all of you that know Tranny John Saltsman. His wife "Diane" had a Brain Aneurysm today and is on life support. To top it off he broke down outside of Indio, Ca and is being towed back.
    He has been a great friend to many in the Kustom Car Culture.
    He's always the first one to help without being asked. Please keep his wife in your prayers.

    Sounds like a stand up guy. In my prayers.
     

  5. Thank you for posting this. John is a great friend and one of the nicest guys you could ever know and his wife is a total sweetheart.

    I spoke to him a few hours ago. He was getting loaded on a tow truck and on his way.

    please keep them in your prayers.

    I have known John and his family for over thirty years. If you could only have one friend in your lifetime John would be the one you would want. I pray for their Family, and when the time is right I will be there for them.

    So sad. I don't know either of them personally, but they are 'family' here. Rest in peace to her and condolences to him and his family and friends for the loss.

    I've known John for almost 25 years yet there is still something inside that doesn't know what to say when things like this unfortunately occur . I just spoke with him on the phone and he knows he can count on my wife and i should his family need anything. :(
