<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Now that the shock is beginning to wear off I've
had time to consider Uncle Jack's legacy. At the top of the list for
me would have to be Tony Drews. When I'd send an e-mail with one of my
many questions it was always to the "Drews", Jack and Tony. Many times I'd
hear from Tony first,and if it was an engine question, he'd defer to Jack, or as
he'd usually say, "I'll think I'll let Uncle Jack chime in on this one."
But on a lot of the other questions Tony would get back to me promptly with an
answer. I think he was taking some of the "load" off of Jack, especially
as I see all of the other posts from people that Jack was helping.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Tony has also been very active
on the list as we all know and, as Jack was, in answering questions and
giving input to the threads.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> While we were building the car
we'd seek out Jack and Tony at Elkhart Lake and Tony would spend whatever time
it took to go over things with us. I recall when he spent about 1/2 hour
reviewing his fuel system, pump, filter, regulator, pressure gauge, plumbing,
fittings, mounting, the whole works.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Again, after the car was built
and after ELVF last Fall when we had a problem with the transmission and I
finally got around to fixing it last winter and realized I'd have to get the OD
off (and back on!) I e-mailed the "Drews" again and it was Tony who gave me
advice. But the part that shows that "the apple doesn't fall far from the
tree", is in one post when I was having my doubts about doing it and Tony says,
"Well, I guess I'll just take a weekend holiday in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin if you
really get into trouble." That turned out not to be
necessary, but he was willing to take a weekend and drive up here to help
another Triumph team.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I said in my "memories" post
that the car wouldn't be what it is and as problem free as it has been without
the help from Uncle Jack. I should have said without the help and
encouragement from the "Drews", Jack <U>and</U> Tony.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I think Jack's helpfulness,
kindness and graciousness is living on in Tony. Any father would be
happy and proud to leave this world knowing he was leaving a son like Tony
behind.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> To me that's Uncle Jack's
greatest legacy.</FONT></DIV>
