Customs Weesner, former editor of Custom Rodder, recovering.

Jerry Weesner, former editor of Custom Rodder magazine and columnist for KKOA Trendsetter mag and CK Deluxe, is recovering at his new home in Sacramento from a stroke he suffered a while ago. His therapy is going well, he's able to get around fine and he's working with a speech therapist.

Jerry is probably one of the most knowledgeable men on the historical SoCal custom car scene and I wish him all the best.

Along with our HAMB family, my Thoughts and Prayers are with you Jerry.

Therapy plays a HUGE part of your rebound. My dad suffered a stroke 3 years ago. After hitting hard with the therapist, pops was back to grinding away in the garage in no time.

 

My thoughts and prayers are sent.

 

Jerry is the coolest and A good friend. To bad after he left the Mag.it went to hell......
Speedy recovery man......................

Get well soon Mr.Weesner Really dig your stories they remind me of the ones my old man used to tell me! I am glad you are getting better and hope to read many more!

 

Things are lookin up, it was a rough couple of months, on the good side, it's the most time I've spent with my folks since I was a kid! My sister and I moved them up to Sacramento a couple of weeks ago, (so she can help them out) and he's getting better every day. He had been my mom's caregiver since her stroke, so I was kinda the last man standing and jumped in to take care of them. Didn't realize how disconnected I had been to them till this happened. Gotta fix some stuff on his '59 Ranchero and get it up to him in Sacto soon...

 

Best wishes and hope you get well soon!!!

 

I've been wondering about him, Thanks Roger for the update, we will still
be lifiting him up with our prayers...
