Default rip haywood dail

lost a friend earlier this week, he was 69 and he and his son rode to daytona where he had a heart attack and died. didnt know him really well, rode with him probally a half dozen times. the thing i liked about him is that he always made you feel very welcome to ride with him and he never met a biker he didnt like. went to his wake tonight they had his electra glide out side the funeral home. got about 40=50 bikes that are gonna escort him to the grave site. RIP. HAYWOOD

I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. I'm happy to hear that he was given an escort in style.

Sorry to hear about the loss of your friend, he does sound like a real great guy to be around. I think that it's really cool that he had a biker escort on his way out, I would have liked to have been there and seen that.
