Damn, that's a shame. Any idea of where we went? MIA or foul play?

Definitely foul play. When he came up missing, His family and I started our own searching as the police would do nothing. I had found out his last call placed and from which tower it bounced off of through the cell comany. The call had been made to a pay phone in the west end of Louisville (Crack head area) We rented a helicopter and I went up with pilot, started a grid pattern over the west end and 40 minutes into it I spotted his truck. Since then the Police have had the investigation. First it was missing persons but now homicide has it. They have some info but no Body. Of course they won't disclose anything to us.

I've been on the news so many time since this. Been nerve racking, as he is my Best Friend and is a very well known and liked guy. Can't go a day without someone asking about him.

There's a link on my website to the News Channel write-ups. It's on the NEWS page of my site.

Re: Equipment Goig To Auction.


Always sorry to read these types of stories.

I hope (optimism is my middle name) your friend turns up alive and well.

Can I ask you something?

The article mentioned $8 worth of gas that he paid for and, then, while in a hurry he forgot to pump. He left absentmindedly & then remembered the gas. The question is: Why only $8? That's only 3 gallons on a good day and wouldn't seemingly get him very far in his truck, unless he had a near-full tank already and was only topping it off. Doesn't that seem a bit odd? Also, was it 'like' him to be so absent-minded to pay for gas and then drive off, forgetting to actually pump it?

What do you think about all this?

Again, you & his family have our prayers.

He was only putting gas in his Stump Grinder.
