This is Richard Parks and I haven't been sending out the Car Racers Newsletter for some time. You can pick up the latest news at www.hotrodhotline.com, Guest Columnist/Richard Parks, or at the Society of Land Speed Racing Historians Newsletter at www.landspeedracing.com. These are free websites and the Lawford family let us use their sites to post news about hot rodding and the racing community. Below is a special announcement for a very special man who helped my father in the SCTA, NHRA, SEMA and other groups. He was a man who was always quick to volunteer with a spirit of friendliness and kindness that we will always remember. Burke was honored by many car organizations and the Parks family is deeply saddened at his passing. Please come and join us for his Memorial and Celebration of Life.
Memorial/Celebration of Life for Burke LeSage. I am trying to get the word out to as many folks as possible. Please help in any way you can. If you have a web site, know of a web site, know friends and/or associates of his and you have a way of contacting them please assist me and the family. Friday, January 20, 2012 at 1:00 PM at The Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum, 1101 West McKinley Avenue, Bldg 3A Pomona, California 91768.
