Wow, it's been three years since our friend Mike passed away.
A lot of the SoCal members didn't know Mike. He was a gentle giant who was confined to a wheelchair after an accident many years ago. He always said that he was 6'5...when lying down. Yet he built his Jeep entirely on his own. He had a pulley system in his garage that would lift him up and move him around to work on his Jeep.
Mike and his buddy Dave died up in Kern County while on a T-hunt, when Mike's Jeep went off a dirt road down a steep hill.

He was such a nice guy and a true inspiration. I still think of him often. I'm sure that he and Lion are watching over us.
