The guys at Kirkham have a history of generosity; from small to big.

Pauls story is big - real big.

My story is much smaller on the grand scale of things. But very big to me, something I'll never forget.

That is one great story! I hope he has a drive every day as it will certainly be memorable each time out.

Fabulous story!

Kudos to hid friends and KMS

Thanks to Kirkams, Parl Berg drove the roadster he worked on or 3 years.
But only a few blocks.

Today the doctor ordered him to the hospital.
He can't eat.
Giving him medicine for pain.
Not looking good for Paul at all.
