Froggy will be missed for sure. He loved fishing, boating, motorcycles like a lot of us anything that had a motor. Always had time to visit with ya and help out if he could. I believe he was planning on moving close to his daughter and family in Florida. Guy never got a day of retirement??? Rest in peach ole friend. Prayers sent for all his family during this difficult time.

Very Sad news for sure...........Froggy had called me at least 5-6 times over the last year asking questions about moving to Florida....he was so excited about it and had all kind of Big Plans to enjoy time on the water with his Allison's once he got here:sad:sad:sad

God Bless Froggy and his family:sad

I met Froggy about 7 years ago at an Allison Rally. Since then we have spent many hours on the phone talking boats and motorcycles. I am just shocked to hear that he passed away. Sending prayers up for his family.

Very shocking and sad news. I met Froggy at the 2005 50th anniversary rally. He was a great guy and was very knowledgable about Allisons and marine engineering in general. He will be sorely missed.

RIP Froggy, prayers going up for your family.

Sorry to hear this. I met Froggy at the 50th also. Like Lou said, he was a really nice guy that would help ya out anyway he could. I can still remember him crawling around under sstom's SS2000 taking notes on how Glen Reynolds had worked the pad.

RIP Froggy and God Bless You and your Family.

Very sad indeed. If its the same person, I met him at the 50th as well. I believe he is the one that bought the petty blue XB2003 from a fellow Kansan of mine (Jim Boyles). That was the first Allison I ever rode in. He was a super nice man. I will pray for the Lords comfort for his loved ones.

God bless you Froggy....

WOW, spend the weekend away from the computer and then I turn this on this morning to find we've lost one of our long time members of "da family" here at A-owners.com! :sad Yep I remember him from the 50th as well.

RIP our brother, you're far better off now than the rest of us. Godspeed John, we'll see you on heavens beach one day.
