You did good, i'd be proud to call you a friend. Your Mom must have done an outstanding job raising you, it shows.

I did not know your mom bought that blazer new, that in itself is really cool. Not all of us have done something like this for the people that have left us, this is really cool.

Nice tribute. Sweet Blazer!!! Yours is good inspiration for my 81 2wd Blazer.

nice job, sick truck, sweet in memory of, and your mom had good taste... she's up there just smiling away proud as can be! Dennis

That is absolutely awesome, it's very sad that she's gone but the video was a very good idea!!

Red_69 · 02-12-2009, 12:38 PM

That is so cool! You have alot to be proud of!

62 short step · 02-12-2009, 05:23 PM

Very awesome tribute!

tvblazer78 · 02-12-2009, 05:30 PM

Thank you all.. It's not much but it helps me at bad times and this weekend will not be easy for us..

And Dennis good luck with the truck, that is very cool..

BruthaMan · 02-12-2009, 06:59 PM

You're a good man. I didn't come here expecting to get choked up this afternoon, but I did. I told my wife once that all I cared about regarding death, was that I was a good enough father and grandfather that my kids and grandkids would always remember me as such. By that standard, your Mom was truly an amazing woman. May God be with you this weekend as you celebrate her life.

WOW!! That is an awesome way to remember your Mother. Great Job!!! and Happy Birthday tommorrow Trav.

sqrbdy · 02-12-2009, 07:32 PM

wow! speechless!

*78 Chevyrado* · 02-12-2009, 08:15 PM

That's real nice! Sorry about your mom! It's REAL cool she got to see what you've done with the truck since you have had it. That's why I'm kinda glad my truck got messed up when it did, cuz now grandad got to see what I've done with it since I got it from him.

**AspecialZ** · 02-12-2009, 09:20 PM

That has to be the sweetest thing I have seen in a while. I lost my mother in August this past year, it's amazing the things I still find I miss about her now. Very well done.

tvblazer78 · 02-13-2009, 09:13 AM

Thanks guys.. This is cool that everyone is touched in a small way by this. Time always goes by fast and you have to make at time to make a phone call or drop by to see that parson that made your life the way it is today. You never know when it's time to go home. This has changed my life for the good and I now make more time for my Dad, son and Wife.

Thanks,
Trav

Lump in my throat as I write this!

Nice job. Lost my mom just after this past thanksgiving so it hits pretty close to home. Another board member that we all know lost his mom 2 days ago. I'll let him tell everyone else.

heavychevy79 · 02-15-2009, 01:45 AM

Very nice, and good song.

I like broken better without Amy Lee.

This makes me realize I need to get more pictures taken with mom and dad
because they are getting up in age, and we don't have many pics of us all
together.
