Very sad news about the passing of pat garlits

[Endangered Species]

I saw this on another site.

Pat Garlits passed away this weekend. May God be with her, Don and their family. She is just as much a legend as Don. They are true hero's of the sport... I know they were my hero's growing up. They are true Christian Racers.

I coped this from http://bangshift.com/blog/sad-news-pat-garlits-wife-of-big-daddy-don-garlits-has-died.html


Dear Friends,

My dear wife of nearly 61 years left this world and went over to the other side at 5:53 PM, this afternoon. She has been suffering a lot these last few… days and it was a Blessing to see God take her into His care. I will miss her very badly, but will be with her sooner than I realize, as time is very different here that over there.

She passed at home with her two Daughters at her side and me holding her hand and a little Yorkie dog on each side of her. She went without making a sound and this house is going to be very quiet for a while. I had “Glenn Miller” playing in the background, as that was her favorite “Big Band”.

I will let everyone know what the Arrangements will be when I know myself. Thanks for all the Prayers and support through this terrible ordeal.

Sincerely,
Don Garlits

AW, man.

But I gotta tell ya, it sounds like that's the way I'd like to go out, at least my version of that caring and thoughtful company.
