“Pass Them On”

Remembering that I’ll miss you,
and now that you have gone.
Fond memories that I have of you,
I’ll be sure to pass them on.

I’m so tired of the sorrow,
that comes with loss of life.
It’s my memories of the good times,
that get me through the night.

I sometimes think of how,
Gods plan for me has changed.
Is the heartbreak that I feel,
by chance or pre-ordained?

I don’t have the answers,

I am deeply saddened to just learn of Mr Browns passing. I was visiting my daughters on March 1st and was very lucky to be given a personal tour of Ardells cars by Rob Webb and meeting Ardell in the last warehouse. Truly a kind gentleman. RIP Mr Brown

Just learned of Ardells passing and was shocked having sat with him at the recent car auction and being careful not to bid against him. Was going to call him this weekend to purchase some of his cars

This still doesn't seem real and reality sucks but I miss you more than you'll ever know, Old Man. Thanks for being the best grandpa ever.

I wont ever forget Ardell. I was a New homeowner at age of 18. I grew up in GlendonWay and after my grandpa passed away, i bought the condo from my grandma. I remember since he owned majority of the units.. one vote per Home, we were out numbered. Being new , young and learning about how the HOAs work... he laughed at me. Got to know him after a few years and he decided to sell The condos... i remember him saying for each one i sell, Im getting a new classic car. and he wasnt kidding.

Ardell was a great and kind man. He always came to the Marquee Restaurant with at least one car. He was kind enough to bring the Mormon Meteor once, and that one act was the highlight of all of our shows.
He was always polite and pleasant.
There will be a great cruise night in Heaven, and Ardell will have the best car there.
Rest in peace, my friend.

Ardell's smile and love for other people was always evident when you saw him. He wanted to know how you were feeling or how you were doing in your life. He was always optimistic about every situation and willing to help in any way possible.

I am grateful for the memories we shared while working in the Draper Temple Baptistry. And the many times he opened up his beautiful classic car collection to us for cookouts at his home. His knowledge of cars of all ages was amazing and his...

Ardell was great pleasure to have the experience to know you and your vast knowledge of cars and life in general. You will be missed and remembered always.
