That was nice. Nice of his buds and nice of his family to respect his wishes as well. Ive always told my family and my wife that whenever i go, i want one last ride in whatever ride i have. Right now its my Bronco, and with the lift it shouldnt be that bad to get me in and out.
That is touching. There have been a few funerals recently like those of young Myron Jr. and Cody, where their car-loving friends and relatives showed their respect and love by coming to the funeral in their cars and wearing club shirts. I think that is the highest form of respect to honor someone by doing what would have made them happy in life. Some people may think it is not "proper" to do things like that, but a funeral is a very personal event and should be what the deceased would have wanted.
I think that is a great way to say good bye to a loved one. When my father-in-law passed away guys from his car club drove their cars to show their respect.
My old boss said he wanted his hearst to drive around the city for a few hours pulling a U-haul trailer and his boat behind that. That way people would say... he took it with him!!! He was a pretty crazy guy & I think he wound up in jail!!!
