Corky I haven't been able to see you much since you moved to The Dalles but do remember the last time you can by my shop while here in Hood River. I have visited your last Harvest Queen out at Hamel Development and think of the many times I got to work on your trucks over the years! As hard as 'logging trucks' get used yours were always kept in top shape and your trucks appreciated that! I will never forget taking your truck home and plugging it in one evening as you were in bed early for your day starting early. I had left a note saying we needed to replace the wooden floor the next weekend as your chair was about ready to fall through and you didn't notice it! You were so up tight about getting the floor replaced that you skipped work that day and had your truck at the shop at 8 the next morning. I pulled the seat and installed 2 - 2" channels under the floor for the seat to mount to so it wouldn't give out so soon from then on. Corky please know that you will be missed for being the great guy you were!! My thoughts are with you!!

Story shared: My first car

Grandpa loaned me the money for my first car. $2500 bought me a 1984 Ford Mustang. I LOVED my car! I was to pay Grandpa back $75 a month. For about a year I paid $75 a month, and a few months even paid double payments. Then one day he said "you have proven to me you are responsible and can pay back your loans, consider your loan paid off" I had only paid off about $1000 of that $2500. He had an amazing way of teaching me responsibility and I will always remember it. Thank you Grandpa!!
