Default update Trev 52Merc

I went and visited him the other Sunday. He is in full time care now and is looking very frail. His illness is taking its toll on him and his memory as to names has lapses but he still has his sense of humour. He appreciated those that posted messages. In typical Trev fashion he has told me what to post and how to post it when the time comes.

What Cecil said. I know Trev really appreciates all the friends he has made over the years on Fordbarn and in the EFV-8 Club of America. Trev and Val really enjoyed visiting with their close friends who live in either Washington State or Oregon (can't remember which) and then driving one of their Early Fords to the Western National Meets. I'm glad we had the opportunity to have dinner with them at the 2010 WNM in St. George, Utah and got to see them again in South Lake Tahoe.

Went to the Hotrod breakfast this Sunday and called by to see old buddy Trev on the way home , Val was there also and is holding up ,as she says " I have to be ok don't I" . Trev is still talking with the old Trev not far below the surface. His beloved merc is sold and in trevs words " the end of an era". He still wants to walk out the care home in his typical stalwart Trev manner. Neat to see his eyes light up with humour and his old rebel side shining thru. I think the nurses got a surprise when we showed up in our 32 3w and we said Trev used to have a hot rod just the same in his younger mischievous years.

To Everybody, I have just heard that Trevor passed away at 9.20pm last night 14th Nov.
He was very thin in the end and on Morphine all the time.
R.I.P Trevor, I will miss you.

What Lawrie said. His family probably did not know about any of us who have been saddened by the illness and subsequent death of Trev. If only there was a way for us to send a giant bereavement card expressing our feelings and thoughts.
