Please stay in touch as you follow your new dream. You had mention this change of things to come a while back and I'm sure you will have just as big of impact and influence on the wolf rescue world as you do in the F-body world. Go get 'em!

I had a feeling it was heading this way. But life often takes a turn and points you in new directions. I know you and Mary will do great in the rescues, you both have big hearts.
We'll always be here for you 'bro.

Sorry to hear Ken ...but I'm also happy the two of you have found something to be even more passionate about than the f-bodies.
One more spelling lesson for the keRm though ... It's negotiable
Good luck on the sale of the cars. Hopefully you'll find someone that can really appreciate them as it seems the overall market is really soft right now Posts: 4222 | From: Winnipeg MB CA | Registered: Feb 2000

You were instrumental in many boards, F-Body gatherings and of coures the Skyline Cruise.
You have always given 100% to everything you do, and I would expect no less to the rescue programs that you are now supporting.
I hope you get the enjoyment and fullfillment you are seeking. There will be a void on the F-Body forums, but we understand.
BTW - I'd love to follow that black Envoy up the Skyline next spring.
Good luck good friend on whatever path you choose.
Brian.

Ken, I have to say that it has been one hell of a ride. You and Mary are quite possibly two of the coolest people I have met through the boards. Its a shame that you will be selling the Comp TA, because we all know that no one else is anal enough to give it the care it deserves. You've been a great giver of advice through the past couple of years, it will be sad to see you go. Also, even though you will not own a muscle car, remember that you will always be welcome here, and you need to give us regular wolf dog updates, as well as stop in and say hello once and awhile. Good luck selling the Comp, and I hope everything goes well for ya!!!
P.S. Does this mean I can finally get off "da list", or is that one of those eternity things?

Ken....I understand your decision. You will be doing a great service to the Wolfdog population with your efforts. I am really sorry you have to sell the Comp/TA but life changes and you have to move on. I wish I could have met you in person....maybe I still will someday.
The best of luck to both you and Mary!

Sorry to see the Comp go up for sale, but your dedication for the rescues will be taking up more and more of your time and you life will be changing. REMEMBER our cars brought us together, but friends were made, glad to see you will be staying in touch.

Stop by and see us. You're the best personality on the Fbody boards. Always a good time and those that have been around enough can predict when Ken's gonna let a post have it. I predict you'll miss it and be back, I hope so.
BEST OF LUCK TO BOTH OF YOU

Sorry to hear Ken but it sounds like you are turning your attention to something even closer to your heart.
It looks like things have finally turned full circle...I can remember when I first found the boards and how much help and information you gave to everyone, including the newbies. You had a big hand in the growth and camraderie of these boards and for that I thank you, as I have learned a ton, met a lot of good people, and had a lot of fun.
Good luck with everything and stick around...we need more of you older, wise folks around here.
oops, typo, meant "wise@$$ folks"

it's only cause of you being you. What's the asking price of the Comp T/A I'll be the first to say I'll chip in to keep it yours. What I was tryin to say before is, how could someone else own it.

When we jumped on the internet in 1997, Ken and Mary opened their arms to everyone in the F-body community. Without their knowledge and guidance of the process, we wouldn't have been able to order and track our SS the way we did. Without that, we wouldn't have met the terrific people we call "family". Their contribution to the internet F-body world is invaluable in the friendships fostered along the way, thanks to their participation on the internet.
If they put that same kind of energy and passion into their Golden Retriever and Wolfdog efforts, there's no way they can do anything but good for that community, too.
Thanks for the ride, it's been a fun one...and best of everything in your future endeavors. The dog world is getting a great couple of people added to it.
