Gary Kole has passed away.  Just got the news today. Don't know how it happened or exactly when. But I did speak to him about 1 month or 2 ago. Mentioned he wasn't feeling right and wasn't going to be racing in 2007. I know he was selling his trailer. I think he even had surgery. But I didn't know he was this ill.

Anyone know? God bless his family in this terrible time.

Heather

Well this is sad news!  What a horrible time to lose a family member and a loved one.

He wasn't much of an active poster here in TF, but I know a lot of us knew him.

My hopes for those who knew him that this pain goes away soon.

Too many good ones being taken away.

I never got the chance to meet Gary. I was hoping to get to a track at the same time as him some day soon.

My deepest sympathies go out to his friends and family.

Wow!  I just saw this, I had spoken with Gary on many occasions, in fact my SVT springs and shocks are from him, this is so sad, he  was an awesome guy.
