WHX?? 48,821 #1 Posted February 20, 2022 Dan's @Achto mom peacefully passed away today. She was ninety two and had a good life. She was always in attendance at most of our regular shows and always a hoot to talk to. She loved to tell us about her days working at the cookie factory. I asked her once what was her secret to longevity was and she replied "two beers at night" Please keep her and her family in your prayers. 9 22 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WHX?? 48,821 #4 Posted February 20, 2022 In the cab of the IH. Lyle was her husband whom I had never met, he passed in '14 or so before I married Dan. He was a collector of both big and small and thankfully his small but eloquent collection has been passed down to Dan and his brothers. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Achto 27,588 #12 Posted February 20, 2022 Thank you all for the condolences. Mom was a very fun person with a good heart who will be greatly missed. She put up with as well as instigated a lot of fun stuff in her life time. Today she joins her favorite partner in crime, my Dad. They were married for 65yrs before my dad's passing. I've been preparing myself for this misfortune for some time but it still isn't easy. 1 15 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pullstart 62,902 #17 Posted February 20, 2022 So sorry to hear buddy. I wish I’d have met her at the few WI shows I’ve attended. She seemed like quite an instigator. I wish I could have taught her about the longevity of anti-seize… 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
