We will remember Bert as he was. Just an all around good guy. I think the first run of the upcoming Dune season ought to be dedicated to Bert? A little early but would rather remember him in one of his happy places? Edited June 4, 2014 by ~JILL~ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lvnalolife Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Here are a couple of pics I could find from a trip we took down to San Diego to race our RC Cars at Phatdad's track. Bert checking out the broken shackle on the return trip home. Bert in his big a$$ chair. Made him look like a kid. I'll miss all the good times from Campcoe to DDR! You will be missed my friend. May you R.I.P. Keep tearing up them dunes in heaven. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sand chick Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Well I posted the other picture and my remembrance of Bert in the wrong place But here is one form the last trip of the year. He had just finished being his usual helping person and pulled out our friend NE14SAND, I don't even think he had ever met him. We were in the middle of the last sunset ride of the season when Aaron's rail went down, not only did he drop out of the run, but he hung out and waited for the guys to get back with the truck and trailer... When I took this photo, he was very interested in what I was doing out in front of him getting just the right angle... when I showed him the photo, he really liked it and asked me to post it up for DPOM for July, to represent the 4th of July and America... So I saved it as he had requested... but here it is... I still want to have it for DPOM for July, since that was his request. I know I have one in for June, but if it's postponed, I want to change my pic entry to this one for July... Thank you... I didn't know Bert like most of the rest of you, I just know he was never unkind to me and was always helpful. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dunefreak Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 ^^ July DPOM it is, per Bert's request. He always flew the American flag on every one of his rides. I liked that. He was a great, patriotic guy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dunefreak Posted June 4, 2014 Author Share Posted June 4, 2014 The first day he brought his new SCU out Last June. I think this would have been his last quad ride. He was in alot of pain after that ride but he said it was worth it. He loved riding. Playing with RC stuff The famous sweater back in the Trim Spa days.

Adam @ GTP Off Road Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) lots of great photos. Seeing all the photos with the people I know makes it so real for me since I didn't get to know him very well. Knowing how much the people I have made friends with hurt right now makes it hurt for me so much. Unfortunately I don't have any photos to ad.
