Sad news

Postby GregR » 19 Mon Jun, 2006 9:36 am

Buggydom has lost one of its truly pioneering and adventerous souls. Friday, Ken Trongo "Bugzapr" of the RBC lost his battle to cancer. Ken was all set to accompany Gene Condon to our Texas Buggy Blast when he fell ill, unable to make the trip. I think Ken would have liked our group and I'm sure we all would have enjoyed meeting him.
Here's what one RBC memebr wrote: There are no words to fully describe our sadness for the loss of our buddy, our friend, Ken. We will cherish the many, many memories of our trips together, our talks by the campfires, the planning of trips to come... Our deepest sympathies go out to Ken's family - you are in our thoughts and our prayers. Ken will be forever in our hearts, and for us no buggy run will ever be quite the same. We are not sure where the next trail may lead, but as you, Ken, our dear friend taught us, let's just take this road and see where it goes... Thank you for sharing your stories, your wisdom, your friendship with us. You will be dearly missed, Ken T., by us and by many others.
D&C

Rest in Peace Ken,

Thank you for your heartfelt thoughts. We are all saddened to hear of Ken's passing. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Ken's family and friends. The world of off-roading and buggies will be a little emptier now.

But Ken will always be with us as long as we keep him in our thoughts. So next time you take a wrong turn somewhere on the trail, just think - Now what would Ken T. say (with a smile and a sparkle in his eye)?... Oh yeah, We don't need no stinkin map! Then head straight for the water crossing at full speed....
