After 18 years maintaining the World-Wide GMC Motorhome Registry I feel
the time has come to turn the responsibility over to an equally dedicated
but younger GMCer, Mr John Shotwell of Ridgefield Corners, OH who has
been working in parallel with me for the past several weeks.

Several times in the recent past, GMCNet members (as well as Jan, my
bride of 57 years) have asked "What happens to the Registry when you
pass on" Well, I can assure you I haven't passed on but increasing age
and declining eyesight are certain indicators that now is the time to
hand responsibility to someone like John who is so highly motivated.

I am especially grateful for the support I have gotten from a few special
GMC service centers like the Kanomatas, Bounds, Sirums and my super
special partner in research and collaboration, Bill Bryant. Roger Black
and Billy Massey have also been ever so helpful in making me aware of new
owners. The GMC Net has been a major contributor to bringing the numbers
to nearly 8,100 at this point. Every time a lurker shows himself or
herself, they find themselves in the Registry's hi powered searchlight.
Then there is the main core of Netters who are not shy about tracking
down an owner for any abandond GMC or stopping to grab the TZE every time
they encounter a fellow GMCer in a campground.

Thanks also to those who have supported the Registry financially. I've
always felt the effort was my contribution to the GMC Community and was
reticent to ask for money but although the service has been free for all
of it's 18 years it is not without cost. And old owners, new owners and
even non owners have been generous for which I am ever so thankful. I
trust John can expect the same support in the future.

Usually when a GMCer sells the old coach some sort of chasm develops
between the old days of seeing old friends at rallies and the post
ownership days of 'maybe' keeping in touch with an occasional email. For
me the Registry was a bridge that spanned the chasm and kept me in touch
with old friends and new friends. I recognize that there will be changes
but my driveway is still open to any GMCer and I expect to hear from all
of you some of the time.

God Bless and Happy Trails!

Kindly continue to support the Registry
