This is actually a great thread.
Anybody else think It would be nice if they could take out the 2006 from the title and just use this thread as an ongoing memorial to lost members past and present ?
** if that is ok with you curly ?.... since u actually started the thread. **[This message has been edited by exoticse (edited 12-03-2007).]

I agree. A "In Memorium: Fiero Members" for those we've lost.
It's a nice remembrance of the friends we've met here.

I really appreciate all the kind words.
I just got back a few hours ago, from My trip to Indiana for Dave's Funeral.
I know I don't have the right to feel as bad about Dave's passing as I did all week.
I know that you're supposed to take your mind off of the loss by thinking about other things. Well I tried to do that last week, but I don't have any other interests that aren't car related & every car related subject got me quickly back to thinking about Dave. To be honest, I've spent most of the last 7 days with tears in my eyes.
Several of our old Rallying group were at the Funeral. If you can imagine what a group of a dozen guys who'd attended Woodstock would look like today if they'd come together for a Funeral of one of their group. Well that's what we looked like except that we had better looking suits. A little grayer, a little heavier, a little slower but they looked great.
Someone PM'ed me & suggested that I post a few pics if I could find them. I know I have a pic of Dave with his Fino at Fierorama, but I haven't found it yet.
When I left for the Funeral yesterday afternoon, I was positive I didn't have any pics of Dave At the Daytona show. When I got to the Funeral & saw one of the old rally guys, I remembered that I indeed did have a picture from Daytona because both him and Dave were in it. I couldn't wait to get home to find it.
This was taken on the Holiday Inn balcony 3-24-00. Gary Kowalski (one of the rally guys) on the left & Dave Nicholas on the Right.
Here is the car we took that year......

A loss from Washington State was Dee Hickman. He was part of Jet City Fiero's however traveled up to BC Canada and joined West Coast Fiero's for many of our Tech Sessions and shows. I can't seem to find a good pic of him with his 88GT T-Top, however I will keep looking. (I did find a short video with him in it though) May post that.

Hickman , Dee Saturday, 16 Jun 2007 Whidbey News Times Whidbey WA Dee Hickman, 69, died June 16, 2007, in Oak Harbor. He was born in El Paso, Texas, on Nov. 26, 1937, to Dee Ephriam and Marie N. (Watt) Hickman. At a young age his family moved to Fresno, Calif., where Dee attended Fresno High School. Here he was active in St. Luke’s Methodist Church youth fellowship. After graduation in 1956, he joined the United States Navy, where he spent the next four years aboard the heavy cruiser USS St. Paul, touring overseas to ports in Japan, Guam, and Hawaii. While serving his country Dee learned a trade in electronics.
Dee stayed in Fresno when he got out of the Navy, and worked as a journeyman electrician for many years before moving to Oak Harbor in 1989. He worked for the city of Oak Harbor and helped to install many of the streetlights along Highway 20, for Puget Power where he was known as “The Friendly Flagger,” and he took care of the North Whidbey R.V. Park for 12 years. He retired in 2003.
Dee enjoyed computer games, and also helping people. Truly outgoing, he offered his skills as a handyman to anyone in need. He volunteered as an ombudsman in nursing care and provided coffee at rest stops through the Coupeville Masonic Lodge. Toward the end of his life he began attending the First United Methodist Church in Oak Harbor.
He is survived by his daughter Jan Andersen of Bothell, granddaughter Aleena Harris, mother Marie, sisters Lois Elsner of Phoenix and Sandee Hickman of Lomita, Calif.; in addition, Wendy Cramer of Oak Harbor was a close, dear friend who lent her strength and love to Dee. The family thanks her.
He was preceded in death by his father in 1980.[This message has been edited by Capt Fiero (edited 01-15-2008).]
