Default Goodbye Dad

It is with the utmost sadness that I write to tell you of the loss of a family member - my father, and fellow CC member Ron Daveley.

Some of you may have known him - he ran SilverFoxCobra.com, sold Cobra calendars every year, and was owner of SPF694. He suffered a massive heart attack yesterday, and was taken away from us at the age of only 63.

I'm glad that Dad got to retire early, and enjoy his retirement by fulfilling a life long dream 4 years ago, when he purchased his first cobra. I know how much fun he had, not only driving the car, but becoming part of a larger family of great cobra enthusiasts, through meets, the CC and SCOF forums, and by publishing his calendar.

I will always treasure the memory of spending an entire day with Dad a couple years ago, driving his cobra around SW Florida, shooting pictures, talking to people, and just hanging out together. We're going to miss him a lot.

Thanks to Club Cobra, and the cobra community at large, for bringing such great joy to him in the last few years.
