This has to be one of the toughest days in TBN history. I found out from another member this evening that we lost another member today - Stan Walker (Swalker) age 69 from western Tennessee near Memphis.
Stan was very active here on TBN for about 5 years while he and Martha owned an 03 Whisper White beauty. The Tbird was really Martha's baby as Stan was an old school Mopar guy. In the end the Tbird gave way to a new Challenger around 2011 (I believe it was a SRT8). As usual around here, when the TBird went, over time his participation on TBN diminished and we haven't seen much of Stan in recent years so a lot of our new members won't know him. He did keep up with a lot of folks via Facebook, so some may know him from there. Stan also had a history of heart problems
For those of us that knew him, we will all remember Stan for his great wit and good spirit. He and Martha participated in several TBN events including Heartland Thunder in Tulsa in 2006. I remember he particularly enjoyed the track time on Hallet Motor Racing Circuit during the event. In fact, as I was told earlier, "He and Gary are probably racing each other in Heaven right now".
Please join me in praying for Martha and Stan's family in this time of loss. If you have stories or thoughts about Stan please post them on this thread so Martha will know we care.
RIP Stan,
Paul and Rosetta
