One week before my father passed we asked Monticello Motor Club if they'd considering letting my father go for a ride around the track. He loved Nascar and never got to go to a race during his lifetime. They quickly obliged and arranged to take Dad around the track. Here is the email that my Mom received when they'd heard of Dad's passing.
Carol,
I stopped by Southern Tier but they told me you’re still out. I’m very sorry to hear about your husband’s passing. Taking him around the race track was one of my most sincere pleasures since opening the place. It was a true honor to have meet him and to have enjoyed a few laps at speed. I only wish we had a Nascar stockcar to have run in as well…but the Ferrari wasn’t a bad alternative.
Again, our deepest condolences on your family’s loss.
Ari
