      Words can not describe the sadness I am feeling this afternoon. Loy, Dave Cloud's wife, just called me and told me that Dave passed away earlier today. His life work will be remembered long after many of us join him in that Big EV Garage in the Sky. He was like a brother in arms to me. We dreamed big dreams together. The big difference is that money or the lack of hardware never stopped him from just going to the work shop and making it happen. Here are just a few pictures I have found and put together over the last two days. Rest in Peace my friend...

      So much death and dieing today... It has me down on my knees in prayer...
      Our heats go out to Don's family, and also to the tragedy in Connecticut." -Steven S Lough
    • "Don was a good friend,and a great thinker, I'm going to miss him." -David Cloud
    • "Don is often spoken of as a legend because of his many achievements. To me, Don will always be legendary for his gentle way of teaching, his open-minded way of looking at and discussing alternatives, his willingness to experiment, and his generosity in all things be it a helping hand, guidance and wisdom, or just a spare part. I will miss him greatly and can only hope that some of his greatness will live on in what he taught so many of us and the inspiration he instilled. RIP Father Time." -Roger W
    • "I’ve been in a bit of a funk since FT’s son Tom called me on Friday morning with the sad news. He has definitely touched many lives in a very positive way. He was always a calming influence when I was around him. We could not have done the Sucking Amps TV show without his expertise and creativity. He also had a great sense of humor. I quote him often with a phrase he did not coin but used from time to time. He would say, “Well you can wish in one hand and crap in the other and see which one fills up first.” I will miss him greatly. - For those who did not know him and even for those who did there is a great segment in the Planetopia TV show from Germany. They came here in 1999 and filmed him at his work and also at the 1999 NEDRA Nationals at Woodburn, Oregon. The video was online on You Tube for many years but it appears to have disappeared not that long ago. I have a copy here on my FOAT page. His segment starts at 2 minutes and 16 seconds in at the beginning of the Planetopia coverage. There is also some footage of his bike in the Punkt 12 video at the beginning of the video. In the very first scene of the Planetopia coverage it shows him hitting the side of a Lincoln with his drag bike and flying over the handlebars only to get up and get right back on the bike: http://www.thefoat.com/fa/v-video/video_id-615/German+TV+Punkt+12+%26+Planetopia%2C+1999+Woodburn/" -Roderick Wilde
    • "Thank you all for your great messages. It means so much to each of us.
      Our family is having a private memorial, but he had so many friends that I think that it would be fitting to somehow have a gathering to celebrate his effect on all he did for all who knew him. I would be willing to help put such an event together. Ideas?
      On that note, we would like to see any pictures and videos that people have gathered over the years, so that a montage can be assembled.
      Again thank you all!" -Tom True
