Default Regarding 51 MERC-CT

I saw this on the HAMB. Just thought I would share. RIP


"Dick (51 MERC-CT) has sadly passed. Wayne Carini has become the car taker of Dick's 51 Merc. Dick was a long time member of the HAMB and well known within New England"

I had a chance to interact with him several years ago. He helped me out a lot.

RIP

Sad news and huge loss. Prayers for his family. I guess he knew what was best for his car.....ON the surface, Carini seems just shy of a slick used car salesman waiting to make a buck and flip a car when he can....But I just see him from what is on TV. I hope that's not the case for this Merc

Dick stopped at my house a couple of times when I lived in Connecticut. He was always pleasant to speak, and deal with. He is missed.
