We were class mates and both were Vietnam Vets. He in the Army and I in the Marines. We were there at about the same time.
Sterling will be missed.

I will miss him every day. I first met Sterling at my shop some 20 plus years ago, we quickly became friends. I will miss his stopping by for a talk or a simple automotive problem. I learned a lot from our talks and he has helped me to be a better person.
Love you brother, until next time my friend.
