Sad News...

I have never met Chris, but when the racing community loses a class act such as Chris, it affects everyone. My thoughts and prayers are with Chris, his family and his friends and fellow racers.

My two cents, if you all have a trophy awarded to the racer who is most improved, dedicated or season champion, you can label it the Chris Avison Memorial Cup.

Again, my condolances to all who lost a dear friend, and family who lost a brother, nephew, grandson and son.

When I Must Leave You

                          When i must leave you for a while-
                      Please do not grieve and shed wild tears
                  And hug your sorrow to you through the years.

                     But start out bravely with a gallant smile;
                          And for my sake and in my name
                            Live on and all things the same.

                    Feed not on your loneliness on empty days
                      But fill each walking hour in useful ways.

                   Reach out your hand in comfort and in cheer
                  And in turn will comfort you and hold you near;
                      I know that at time you will need to cry,
                    But know that i am happy up here in the sky!
