Lost a member and a friend today smarT Malachi Springer

Post by gtbpappy » Mon May 28, 2018 9:34 pm

Lost a friend today, as he was taken off life support, he was driving the old 42 Ford script to a Memorial Day event. The old girl vapor locked on him, and he pulled over to check it out, and was hit from behind, and ol "MAX" flipped on him. He will be missed, and a real good guy. He was really a person who lived the 40's. He was on here as smarT.

He always seemed like a very good guy by reading his posts.
I seem to remember he was willing to give away a 1/4-ton trailer one time.

Sad news for sure.
