Things I never got the courage to say

A life time of memories shared an created with a grumpy old man who yelled " GET OFF MY LAWN " to the neighbourhood kids the old fella that use to always have a story weather you liked it or not he was there with a smile a alot of waving of his hands and a wiggle of his finger . I as they very adhd always got the lectures on why i shouldnt talk to much or why i should look after my cars or why my lods dont listen cause i didnt listen as a kid . I got into traffic management so i had that slight chance of having Tony come through my site and one day while working on the highway by methnix he rolls up in his giant Move truck me mumbling to myself ' bloody truck driver alwaya trying to take me out ' just to see Tony beaming back at me laughing , an i was a little kid again seeing a parent at their school event i was elatted . I let him through my thresh hold right away cause he got vip treatment haha over the rt im hollered " THATS MY OLD MAN IN THAT TRUCK" I was so proud of myself an of Tony sometimes i have car questions ........ and now hes not there an my heartbreaks . He helped mold who I am today my love for cars my love for anoying everyone then leaving , Im trying so hard not to be so sad but i lost thee most influential male i had in my life now i just go to tonys spot on mums bed an stare at the box .

Very Sorry to lose you my friend. I really enjoyed you calling into the caryard for little chats. You were only here a couple of weeks ago showing me your cruise photos. You bought about 8 cars from me over the years. You loved cars. I remember at Americarna when you bought the Comaro off the 4 guys how excited you were. Everytime you got new wheels or under bonnett chrome bits you would always come and show me. You were very kind and loved theresa. You were so good with the kids and the grandkids. Im going to miss seeing the green machine pull into the car yard. Rest in peace my friend. But remember keep cruising in those V8s. Truly missed your friend Ozy.
