Condolences to family, didn't know you RR but do remember that VERY sweet looking Z750. Strika i'll be there more than likely if indeed a bike procession is desired.

what he die of
Based on the request for donations, and the fact that he had lost a stack of weight last time I saw him, then I would guess at the big C!
