Jay, Lisa, Jeffrey, and Families,

I am so sorry to hear of your father’s passing. He was a great guy. I remember your dad always helping me out with my ’68 Impala convertible. He always solved the problem when I could not figure it out. I remember his love of cars, sports, and the 3 of you and your mother.

God rest your soul, Mr. Shimko. See you in the Big Garage in the Sky.
