Not sure if anyone here has heard, but Steve Pierce of 29 Palms passed away. Steve was a well known supplier of 57 Ford parts, and a lot of us here have bought from him. Causebof death isvunknown atvthisctime, RIP Steve.
I actually just heard on Sunday about it. I never got to meet him but always heard about him for years. The guy that told me has a green fully optioned '57 convertible, he seems to only restore '57 and also said that his Steve's family was keeping the yard going. RIP fellow 57 enthusiast
It is that time of the year. Many of us are advancing in age. Stuff starts to show up. It is really sad to see so many of us going for the "long nap", part of the cycle. Three years ago there were 10 - 12 of us that got together for breakfast on Saturday mornings. Just two of the group left. I was the second youngest. As our circle of friends gets smaller, it is harder to fill the gaps left by those that have passed. The "Ranchero Wizard" was a loss to our 57 community. His widow was unable to continue his work and those parts disposition are unknown.
James please know there are a ton of prayers out there for positive results from your up coming surgery! Stay positive!
