    Bob Ellison, long time competitor in the A/GS ranks and the Boston Strangler alcohol funny from the 70's -80's passed Friday.

    Bob was recovering from injuries sustained while competing at the Indy Good Guys event two weeks ago driving the recently restored Ellison & McGarvey 33 Willys.

    While receovering slowly from those injuries, Bob died from complications brought on as a result of a massive stroke he suffered yesterday.

    Bob will be missed in the Racing World ... RIP

    My thoughts and prayers go out to his family and to you to Ray. It's really tough to lose a friend, the really good ones are rare in this day and age.

    Sad news to be sure. But his death was a result of doing something he loved doing obviously, can't ask for more than that. To his family and all those that new him I am so sorry for your lose. Geoff
