I will miss John. B I know his health was lousy, and he struggled to make his
way around the paddock, but he had a great sense of humor, knew his
Triumphs, and always helped out with parts and tools in the paddock. B He had
a way with the written word and his comments will be sorely missed. B I'll
remember him in that pale blue TR3 or in his old pick-up truck. B A life cut
too short, for sure. B We'll have to have a ceremony/toast for him at the
Turkey Bowl this year.

It is with sadness that I pass along the news of the passing of
John (JR) Herrera. B His brother Frank (Tico) will be handling the
arrangements. B As of now, I know that JR will be cremated and that
Tico will arrange a memorial service at a place and time yet to be
determined. B I will let everyone know as soon as I know.
JR was a dear friend and one of the original M-D TRA members.
He will be missed by many, including the hundreds of people he befriended on
the internet forums that he hung-out on. B May his soul rest in peace and
hopefully at some vintage races up in the sky.
