Lost a friend today

[upnover]

Lost one of the oldest "wheeling" friends I had today. A great friend, a very giving heart, a true love for camping and wheeling.
John Stroder, you will be missed by me, and by many many others.
RIP brother

Aw man! John bought many parts from me when I set up at the uwharrie jambos.

John was a great guy. He will be missed.

Just got off the phone with his brother.
Terrible to say the least.
RIP @BigJUGGY

This news was shocking and broke my heart. Made me take a moment to appreciate life. None of us are guaranteed tomorrow

Hearing this last night was a swift kick to the feels. Always looked forward to hanging out with the Stroder brothers. John will be missed, praying for his family.

Very sad day... John was a good friend.

 

[Rox&Mud]

I just heard, it was a shock to hear. I enjoyed wheeling and conversing with John over the years. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to Jeff and the rest of the family as well as our community that will surely feel his loss.

I've typed out several responses, but simply can't find the words.

 

[YJJPWrangler]

Wow. I met him at URE and traded my stock axles for a motor for my Willys. He was gracious enough to let me ride shotgun with him that day at UNF. He was a nice guy and knew just about everyone at the jamboree.

RIP @BigJUGGY

I didn’t know John personally, but do remember seeing his rig at rides. I’m sorry to hear of his passing. Seems that he was pretty young? I guess tomorrow is never promised. RIP John Stroder. Prayers for his family.

 

[McCracken]

Damn. He was an e-friend on Facebook. Sucks to see that. For those who were close to him you have my sympathies.

 

[ord.sgt.26NC]

for those of us not in the loop,what happened? Met him a few times but really didn't know him.
