I am so sad to hear this. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Marylin and the family.

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I will say he had fought a long hard battle with cancer and as far as I'm concerned won that battle. It seems as though treatments had caused most of the damage he had to face.  He had a wonderful Thanksgiving and from that point we lost a little everyday until his passing the following Sunday morning at 4:21am. Lonnie had a few discomforting moments the day before but just simply faded off to sleep. Really couldn't ask for anything better. We have all been touched by this man at some point or another and he will definitely be missed. The jeep community has taken a loss but he has also managed to created his own mafia he in Ky. So his passion will still live on. Simply, well done Lonnie for making your mark on this world!
