As many of you know, DKP member and all round Porsche/VW guy is currently undergoing treatment (read: surgery and the demon chemo...) for brain cancer. He's around my age (yeah, yeah, I know – old!) and it really makes me think about my mortality. Roger's wife Terrie has been keeping up a blog ('Roger's Race') since the beginning:

http://rogersrace.blogspot.com/ 

Read back through it and wonder at his resolve to battle against this illness.

I have an idea: Terrie says he loves receiving e-mails, so everybody, take a photo of yourself holding up a sign that says something like "Hi Roger! We're thinking of you!", or something like that, and then e-mail it to Terrie at: tgrago "at" gmail.com

Or if you don't like that idea, send him a picture of your VW (or Porsche) with a nice message.

Not too much to ask...  Smiley

Thanks everyone – after all, it could be you or me, or your loved ones...

The Return of Roger Grago's 73 RS GT
The debut of Roger Grago's 73 RS GT will be Saturday October 4.
A celebration will occur at Scotts Independent

The hours are from 10-2

Many of us will be starting at Cars and Coffee, then continue to Scotts. Or, meet us there?
A bratwurst bbq has been planned. Please RSVP here by October 1.

Many people have been involved in this labor of love for our friend. Please stop by and say hello..
I am sure Marco G., Mike Sofka and the others, can fill in everyone on the history of Roger and the
restoration of this special 911.
