Dick Spadaros' Health

Dick was very helpful to me and the V8-60 and went quite a bit out of his way to do it. Very much appreciated.

A very good guy. My best to him.
 
I called the shop today to check on some parts and asked how Dick was doing. Still in the hospital so I didn't question further.

Ok, for anyone like me that didn't know what it was: "Glioblastoma is the most common and most aggressive malignant primary brain tumor in humans".
 
I was about ready to order a windshield frame for my 5w, and was hoping I could talk to "the 32 man". Heart goes out to him and his family.
 
Not good news unfortunately. The following was posted on the HAMB last night:


"I haven't heard much in a while, so I call a friend, who lives near him
and is a hot rodder!
He says Dick is still in the hospital.
He is not doing well at all.
Some of his cars and parts were sold, to a good friend ,who was customer of his for many years .
The business will close by the end of the year.
We wish Dick the best! but sad to say, no good news at this time!
If I hear anything new, I will post it".
 
Such a sad thing to hear. Cancer is a nasty disease in any form. I've lost My Dad and my oldest sister to it. I think we all need to say an extra prayer or two for Dick. Maybe the man upstairs will hear us and step in.
 
I was at the store last Friday and can confirm what was said above. Didn't ask where the '32 went, though. Bought a few things. He has a lot of parts between the store and barn. Will probably pay Bill another visit soon. Worth a trip to look around for something you could use. Who knows where it all will end up.
