Sad News!!! WTM442

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As some of you may or may not know of the passing of Warren Meyer (WTM442). I know he was always on this site so I just felt like someone should inform you of the sad news.



Warren T. Meyer, an avid car enthusiast, died suddenly Tuesday March 24 at his home in Squantum. He was 61 years old.

Born in Quincy and raised in Squantum, he was a graduate of North Quincy High School and Northeastern University. Mr. Meyer worked for The Foxboro Company as a systems engineer for special projects until his retirement in 2003. He enjoyed restoring cars, cooking and working in his garden.

Beloved son of the late Lawrence F. and Muriel O. (Erb) Meyer. Brother of Carole Wood of Vineyard Haven, Deborah fanning of Norton and Cheryl J. McCarthy of Pembroke. Warren is survived by eight nephews, two nieces, two great-nieces, a great-great-nephew and a great-great-niece.

Memorial visitation at Dolan Funeral Home, 460 Granite Avenue, MILTON, Tuesday March 31 beginning at 1:00 PM with a Memorial Service to be conducted by Rev. Michael S. Robertson of First Church of Squantum at 2:30 PM. Relatives and friends invited.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Warren’s memory may be made to American Heart Assn., 20 Speen St., Framingham, MA 01701 or American Diabetes Assn., 330 Congress St., Boston, MA 02210.

Warren,

I will miss out e-mails and phone chats, but most of all your great posts and enjoyment of life and driving your Cobra. Take care buddy and I will be seeing you soon as we discussed in our last correspondence. And I still don't know how to deal with depression and now it is worse. Rest in peace buddy and I hope that God will let you drive your Cobra in Heaven.

Ron

I passed on the sad news to the SCOF forum, where Warren occasionally posted. Still hard to believe....

Shocked... sorry to hear this.

Warren was an inspiration here. He really captured the essence of an enthusiast. He packed a lot of Cobra driving into those 61 years.

He will me missed.

Very sad! He was one of the first i was talking to when I purchased my cobra. I always enjoyed his posts on CC. He will be missed greatly. God bless his family.

Very Respectfully,

Chris

This is very sad. Warren was a great guy.

In 2004 or 2005 my wife and I took the cobra to a meet in Stowe, VT. We went with the thoughts of doing a lot of driving and taking in the sights. On the first morning we woke up and all met outside around our cars. After about an hour I asked who wanted to go driving. Warren was the only guy to step forward.

We drove up through Smugglers Notch and all the way to the Canadian Border and back. The weather was 85 degrees and the most beautiful driving day you could ask for. I think we were on the road for about 6 hrs. We had a great time. He has some photos from the ride in his photo album here on CC, maybe even a thread on it.

After spending the day with Warren my wife and I decided to try the pub at the Inn we were staying at. It is rare that we can get away for an event like this with a babysitter back home for the kids so we wanted to take advantage of it. Who walks in but Warren! Yup, he sat with us and we had a great time! He would give you the shirt off his back.

We kept in contact ever since.

RIP Warren.

Default I can't belive it!

We had just gone over the new (09) events list which he sent to me and I watch him take a ride in his car via the internet.

He was always able to get great pictures of the ladies and our cars.

Rest in peace big guy.
