I heard through sources, that our friend "Uncle Gary" Connors, is not doing well after lung surgery.
Lou on the Canadian board asked me to share this news, so you can all send you prayers and warm thoughts to a triples legend and all around awesome guy.
I wouldn't suggest barraging the family with emails, messages etc...
Let's just hope for another miracle run from a real champion.

Get well Gary,
Saturday mornings suck without your radio show Bud ! ! !

Thanks Steve - I don't have FB so I don't get much news on such things. I sure wish Gary the best - a true salt-of-the-earth guy.

My thoughts to the legend, I hope he'll win yet again.

I remember him from the old board and reading about the drag bike race results.

Fight the good fight Gary and prayers lifted!!

Never met him but we're friends on FB and have chatted a few times. Good Guy -- Positive vibes.

I am saddened to report, we lost our good friend today.
Please keep Deb and all of Garys family in your prayers and thoughts tonight.
