I don't know if anyone posted this yet, but I wanted everyone to know... and everyone to come!!
If y'all remember back in late September the Gateway JBO lost one of its founding members, Brian Klocke. This show is being held in memory of Brian. Here is more information. Please try to come even if it's to hang out and support this cause! Thanks guys!
From www.j-body.org/~gatewayjbody:
On September 30, 2004, Brian Klocke, former president and founding member of GJBO, died in a motorcycle accident. He was on his way to work after sending his five-year old daughter Alyssa to school.
With the recent passing of Brian, we felt the need to find a way to honor his memory, and at the same time to benefit his daughter. We could think of no better way to celebrate a fallen brother and friend than to put on a car show in his honor, with the proceeds to benefit his daughter. We hope it will be successful, and with your help we know it will.
Our proceeds from this show will go to the Alyssa Dobner-Klocke Trust. It is our way of guaranteeing Brian’s daughter, Alyssa, will have the kind of future we all know Brian wanted. As a loving father, he dedicated his life from a young age to his daughter. Each member of GJBO can tell you story after story of the times he openly showed his adoration for her.
Brian had no life insurance. When he passed, he left little behind for his daughter, or his family who now bear the both the joy and responsibility of raising Alyssa. We are hoping with this show we can help ease the road for her, and the burden for them. By no means can we bring Brian back, but we can help to fulfill his dreams for his daughter, and his hopes for her future.
