Final Tribute and Goodbye for “Mikey”


Eddie44

Recommended Posts

Most of the Old Timers Know long time ACE Member Mike Myer “Mikey”. He has been battling cancer for years. Doctors have pronounced his condition terminal. He quit treatment a couple months ago and the Doctors say he’s lived longer than they expected. 

 

“Mikey” has made a final request for a Corvette Drive By from ACE Members.  Several of us who are close to “Mikey” have come up with a plan to fulfill his wish. 

 

Details are as follows. We would like to see as many ACE Members as possible attend. I’m sure “Mikey” will Love it. 

 

Date: Dec 9th

Time: 11:00 am

Place: Desert Mountain HS

            124th St & Via Linda

             Scottsdale

 

We will stage at the HS (see map below)and then proceed north a couple blocks and drive by his house. He is currently in a wheelchair and under Hospice care but he’ll be out front on the drive to witness any “shenanigans” you all want to do. Neighbors will be alerted in.case there are loud exhaust noises or burnouts.

 

Lunch at Blue Adobe Grille has fallen thru. They have been contacted and there is doubt they can handle a group the size of ours. We contacted Zipps and they were hesitant with the Sunday NFL crowd. We’ll have a list of nearby restaurants for everyone that day. It appears we’ll have to break up into smaller groups. 

 

Please post up if you can make it to this final tribute to a dear friend.

Okay, I’m not going to call anyone out by name but there are a number of long time ACE Members who have shown zero interest or posted up their attendance. Mikey mentioned quite a list of folks he’d like to see.  Mikey has been around ACE for a long time and has contributed a ton. Let’s show him some love.

Our annual Prescott courthouse square Christmas lights viewing day is scheduled then, so unfortunately, we're out. Do an extra burnout for us! :burnout
