Ferrari Mailing List: Re: George Parker - tragedy

[LarryT (l02turner]

MCV ?  I ask because we have the Medical College of Va here in Richmond, Va.  It's a world class facility and would be a great place for George to be but I haven't heard of anything like a car explosion nearby.

We had a Spitfire many years ago - it was a '63 and req'd a lot of maintenance.  But it was our 1st sports car and we drove it everywhere with the top down. 

A friend had a similar even as George - he was working on his 944 and had pushed a phillips head screw driver in a fuel line.  At some point (3am) the screwdriver either slipped or leaked and the pilot light for the Hot Water heater lit the fumes.   The "Boom" awakened them and they escaped unhurt.

Very sorry to hear about Georges injuries - we will pray for him & his wfe....

Just saw this on FB from Matt Boyd, and wanted to share with all of George’s friends here.  Ugh, horrible tragedy.  Keeping George and wife Lee in my thoughts.

 

>Please say a prayer tonight for our friends, George Parker and his wife Lee. Their car blew up in the garage this morning and caused their house to burn down. George was injured pretty severely and is at MCV.

 

George posted two days ago that his Triumph Spitfire broke down and left him on the side of the road, needed a flatbed home.  Maybe this was the cause?

 

Matt, please keep us apprised of the situation. 

 

Vty,
