[Bill Cal.]

Gary and I grew up in the same town,Fort Bragg, Cal. were in the class of 1963 together and acquired our first models A's the same year 1959. He kept his 29 pick-up and drove it up until he passed a couple of days ago. Gary was an amazing resource and friend for all of us with model A's. Not only for parts but for help and advice anytime and all the time. He was the nucleus for all of us on the coast with model a's. My heart goes out to his wife, Betty, his kids and grandkids. There will never be another Gary Partridge. It was an honor to have know him, Bill
