We lost a Great long time member today. RIP Undertaker72

Don't know the details but his daughter posted on FB of Kevin Barkers passing. He was a really nice guy, I never met him in person but had lots of dealings with him. Rest in Peace Kevin

That is very sad. Kevin was an icon on this board. He was very kind to me. Bought a truck from him. Always quick to answer a text and offer any help he could. A truck guy's truck guy. Will miss you bud.

Re: We lost a Great long time member today. RIP Undertaker72

Gosh dammit. I’m heartbroken. I bought my truck from Kevin…. Actually 2 K20’s from him. This is a huge loss. He was an amazing guy with a ton of knowledge and almost as many parts. RIP Kevin. Prayers to your family.

Re: We lost a Great long time member today. RIP Undertaker72

Sad to read this, the 350TH/NP205 in my '71 4x4 I purchased from him several years ago. Was great to work with helping with the shipping from Utah to Kansas. He rebuilt/resealed both sections and both have worked flawlessly since that time. RIP Kevin and Keep On Truckin'.

Re: We lost a Great long time member today. RIP Undertaker72

My Condolences to the Family. The older I get makes me wonder how much time to I have left. I don't know how old Kevin was and I do believe that age is just a number, but I turn 70 this year (Oct) and it just kinda messes with me. I Hope Kevin had a Great life
God Bless

Re: We lost a Great long time member today. RIP Undertaker72

Such a bummer
I didn't see this coming
Over the years i bought several trucks from Kevin and visited him at his place in Utah any time I was passing through
Earlier this summer we spoke
I asked him if he wanted to hook up in SLC at the c10 nationals
He told me he had retired and was always short of breath, had been sick recently and never entirely recovered
With that being said, he was the same old good guy he always was, and quite positive.

RIP Kevin........You will be missed

I've been thinking about this for a few days now. It's hard to come to grips with. I talked to him on the phone not long ago. Rest in Piece Kevin.
