Default In Memory of my parents

Thanks for providing this place to memorialize our family and friends.

In Loving Memory of my two parents which passed away 99 days apart.

Guy G. Feb 5, 1912 - Dec 19, 2004
Mary L. G. Feb 11, 1930 - March 28, 2005

Rest in peace and thank you for the love and support that you provided me throught my life. Without you my life will never be the same.
On the faring of my 05 Ultra, there is an American Eagle, and two stars (one for each of my parents) so that they are always riding with me. They are placed right behind the eagles head whereas the meaning of the two stars are always on his mind.

Stephen

I think that is a great touch, that way they will always be with you when you are out riding. Enjoy the ride

Steve,
That is tremendous! It is odd that although my dad and I both have had motorcyles all of our lives and ridden who knows how many thousands of miles, we have never ridden together. I know we each of our own group of riding buddies, but one day he let me know why... He told me of an iron butt ride where a father and son who were both of our friends went on and ended up arguing at every pit stop and got to a point where they rode on entire opposite ends of the group. My dad said: "Son I know you are a good rider, perhaps as good or better than me and we are the best of friends so lets keep it that way and not risk it..."
Enough said... although he did get some new tires in for his 1969 BMW R60 and wanted to know the next time I would be riding through Oklahoma!
