Default This Car Guy Really Needs a Hand

Yenko Members,

I was wondering if you wouldn't mind me bouncing something off you. I believe that some of you could understand the situation I'm in and what I'm feeling and I'd like your opinions. About ten years ago I was working in Utah and made friends with a great younger guy, his name is Rick McIntyre, he also was a car guy and had a really cool '55 post that he was building at the time and I was always trying to buy it from him. He showed me around to all the great places in Utah and we had a great time. I met his finance' Kori and she also was very sweet, what a good looking couple they are. Anyway they invited me to their wedding and it was a blast. Fast forward 10 years and three beautiful children later, this past Christmas my wife Connie and I were opening the mail and that particular day we had received 4 or 5 Christmas cards and letters to open. Two of the letters were news letters that families send to friends and relatives to give the 411 on everybody, well when I read this letter I was floored and could not really begin to understand what they (The McIntyre's) are going through. What I was thinking is what do you think about me posting this letter from a car guy(since sold) to a group of not only automobile enthusiasts but for the most part great human beings that seem to care about other people. My heart really goes out to this young family and I'd love for other people to know this story. Read the letter from Carson's mom and dad.

I've written out a check and put it in the mail box. If all the members here could donate whatever they can, I'm sure we can get them to the 50K level PDQ.

We all come from different walks of life but it's life that ties us all together. The cars just solidify the bond~

I will be doing the same thing.

We've been in that position before...and it's hard! Definitely easier with caring people involved!

My wife is a two time cancer survivor and I will step up like all those that have helped me over the years.
God Bless.
If everyone gave just the cost of a tank of gas, it would add up fast.

It's nice to see people helping others in need. I think this little guy deserves the opportunity for a full and happy life. You site members have got the right idea, a tank of gas can change his life for the better.
