Don; RIP my friend. Connecticut’s Original Dragster.
We were friends since I was 10 years old. I lived on the Berlin Tpke. I use to walk down to your Calso (originally) gas station. Hang out and watch all the hot rods. You gave me many great memories as a kid. I loved your little roadster. Again my friend. RIP. You were definitely one of the good guys. Known throughout New England. “ THE ORIGINAL DRAGSTER. “.
