Lars, et al. - Thanks for getting the card out.
Most people should plan for unexpected deaths. If you have financial obligations that could end up being a burden on a loved one if you passed, you should have some planning in place.
Typically, that's life insurance when you are younger and/or with more debt (e.g. a mortgage, student loans, future college tuition for kids, etc) and retirement savings when you are older and have fewer obligations.
Sometimes tragedies like this are a good reminder to look at our own situations and see if there is anything we need to do to better get our own affairs in order.

start with Gerber life insurance, because you always need more money to pay the bills when you newborn kicks the bucket.
sorry not in good taste, but i think that Gerber baby life insurance is a scam and I feel bad for the people who pay into it thinking they are doing something good.

Other then that, I totally agree. They feed off of new parents fears. Yay corporations! Sorry it's off topic.
So then we won't be doing anything for the family/friends? Hell maybe the local people can do a meet/cruise through the Tail the Dragon.

They've place a black ribbon on the RAGS sign on the gap. We've done trash pick-up on the last 2 miles for 10+ years and Roy has joined many many times.
I know it's a long ways away but I plan on doing something to honor Roy for MATG this summer.
Also Jason, a good friend of Roy's and mine, set up a fund raiser for Roy's family. Feel free to donate! https://fundrazr.com/campaigns/bfJp1...acebook.com%2F

RIP man, he's driving the legendary 98 miata in the foreversky.
I'd like to think we can learn something from this; do we know if there was any amount of safety measures he could have implemented that could have prevented this? Or did the car hit the tree sideways? I can't tell from the above image. ..
