To the family of Mr. Amaya sorry for your loss, may GOD give you his STRENGHT, HIS LOVE, AND HIS PEACE in this time of sorrow. It sounds like Mr. Amaya was a character liked to have fun with family and friends. His memory will live on everytime you tell a story about him or just seeing something simple and you will smile of the memory. Just take it one day at a time and as each day passes it does get easier to deal with your loss. May Mr. Amaya RIP.

I am sorry for your loss, though I did not know him personally, Scott would talk about him often. I know he will be greatly missed. Rest in Peace.

Hi Dad,
I went to your house and paid your space rent last night. I miss you alot the house is quiet and not full of Kentucky Fried CHicken which I now miss. NO blasting Tv was on no nothing. I miss you so much and I hope you're watching over me.
Love Erika

We`re sorry to learn of Mike`s passing. He was quite a character and a great neighbor. He taught Bob a lot about racing and working on cars. I know he`ll be greatly missed by friends and family. Take care Mike.

I was deeply saddened to learn today that Mike had passed away. Mike was a huge influence in my life during my high school years of the early 70's. As my neighbor and good friend, he taught me all about dirt track race cars, I was one of mechanics working on the car and his "pitman" when we raced. What I learned fom Mike during that time helped shape who I am today.

On this past 4th of July here in the Chico, CA., we attended the 410 sprint and stock car races as we do...

We all loved you so much Mikie, you were alway so fun and made us laugh sooo much. and so full of bull too. You were the cutest 15 year old when I met you, and Ken was always jealous of you and me HA

Ill miss you Dad, I love you so much .
