I will miss you Flash. Now you can rest in a better place. We go back many years and always helped me when ever I was in need. I loved being a part of your life and learned alot about racing and car work, too! We shared many memories together. May we meet again, one day, my good friend. Thank you for all you have given me. Peace be yours.

Flash was a great childhood friend of mine. All my memories with Flash were great. We'd walk home from Central elementary school together. He and I would play pingpong at the Tacoma Boy's Club for hours. And we won a trophy play ing doubles there. I'll miss my buddy dearly. My warmest sympathy goes out to he's entire family.

I remember living next door to Flash on Union. Dontese was a newborn and Flash used to come by daily to check on us daily, would bring milk or cook and bring us a plate. Rest in peace and give Momma Jean a kiss from Michelle Dontese and Aaron
