Our British Car Enthusiast family has lost a long-time member, tireless volunteer, and good friend to many. Arnie Taub passed away on Friday,February 26th. 2010 We have had the opportunity to spend many an afternoon and evening talking with Arnie. His smile and humor would draw you in, and wonderful conversation around British cars would ensue, and go to what ever the conversation lent itself to. His enthusiasm ran deep, and his effort to share that with others, whether through the Western Washington ABFM, his classes for younger folks on British car basics, or just hanging around in the parking lot after a meeting, was nothing short of success. He will be truly missed.
Craig Anderson
Craig Anderson passed away January 19, 2010. Craig was the editor of our Cascade Magazine and a long time club member. A good friend to many of us he and his stories will be missed.

Norman Nock (1929 - 2010) It is with great sorrow that we must announce the passing of our beloved father and mentor. We know that he will be missed by many people in the British Car World. We appreciate all of your sympathy and good wishes. We will continue to drive, repair, and restore the British cars that he loved so much, as we know he would want us to do. David and Sheila

Subject: [Healeys] Don Lenschow
Date: Friday, April 30, 2010, 6:17 PM
I just received a note that our good friend Don Lenschow passed away at his home in Texas this morning. Don was an incredible spirit and a gracious friend. Many of us came to know him during his visits at Healey Events. His hearty laugh and undeniably witty sense of humor will be greatly missed. Don was a member of both AHCUSA (Past-President) and AHCA and a long time member of the North Texas AHC.
Don's funeral will take place in Boyd, Texas on Monday. Burial will be in his home town of Sycamore, Illinois.
I'm sure you'll join in remembering Don and keeping his wife Kay and the entire Lenschow family in our thoughts and prayers.
Ted Boskovich Jr.
Ted had many interests. He loved British sports cars. He was a long time member of the Cascade Club. He began vintage racing in 1989, first with his Austin Healey, then with his 1959 Lotus 18 Formula Jr. He was a founding member of SOVREN. He enjoyed working in his yard, where he and Rondi converted their spacious garden from lawn to Puget Sound native landscape.

TOUR TWO: Leave on Monday, June 25th on the Anacortes to Sydney ferry leaving at 8:25am. (Higher tides in the morning than the afternoon sailing at 2:45) Better ramp angle for our cars in the morning.
There is a lower price for seniors as well as lower fare for cars under 14'. (We should all make that unless we are pulling a yellow trailer)
Car and passenger should be about $50 each way. Problem is they won't
open the summer schedule for reservations until the middle of May. We would return on the afternoon ferry on Friday.
I will get more specific as soon as I can confirm the time and
possible fare increase mid-May.

TOUR Four: Healey Friends, This morning I called the Red Lion to make the Schneider reservation for the night of June 23, 2012. The Austin-Healey Club of Oregon arrangements are up and running. You may call in and make reservations and they will recognize the arrangements made fin the name of the Oregon club. Remember, you have a choice of a water front room at $139.00 or a room across the hall for $119.00, plus tax
of course). The room will include a breakfast for two. In case there are Oregon Club or Cascade Club members passing through Port Angeles on Sunday evening I requested the room rate be extended to those travelers as well. The Red Lion agreed to the request and the room rates are the same. Just be sure to mention the Club name to receive the rates. Please
hare the information with other Healey folk. Mark & Marilynne Schneider
