          The legends are leaving us far too quickly.
          There's always something new to learn.

                                  What the others have said - he led a hell of a life! Condolences to his surviving family.

                                  In terms of losing important celebrities, has this year been worse than most? It seems like it, and it's only May.

                                      RIP Mr. Shelby. You fought a helluva battle against the body that wanted to leave you at the end. Such courage. And such accomplishment. RIP.

                                              Met him once, heck of a nice guy. Toured his production facilities, test drove the then current limited production stuff, great time.

                                              Rest in Peace and thanks for all the fun.

                                              Of all the paths you take in life - make sure a few of them are dirt.

                                                      We'll Miss You, Carroll

                                                      Sort of moving this topic from the Blog to here.

                                                      I guess we all grow old and eventually get recalled by The Factory, but I was thinking Mr. Shelby was near immortal. Certainly a tough ol' bird. With all his heart issues it was amazing that he got as many years as he did.

                                                      Hope his family and friends find peace and that he gets whatever rewards humans get.
