He went into the hospital for the last time about the same time I bought the car. He never saw or drove the car. His wife said he wouldn't have accepted it but I told her I'd park it in the driveway so he would at least have to drive it to move it out of the way.
He left behind a wife and two young boys.
What a great friend and an awesome story. I assume you'll be keeping that '99 forever.
