Our hearts are utterly shattered and we are beyond devastated over the passing of our cousin and friend Steve Drummond. We’ve shared too many memories and stories to count but your cousin has them all in his heart. And when it isn’t too painful, he’ll share them with all of us again.
You were a legend on the track, a teacher to so many, a coach to the kids, a machinist, fabricator, father, husband, brother, friend and so much more.
Until we meet again, Kathy and Cody will keep building fast cars and I guarantee you that Billy Boy, Austin and Braden will keep running them fast too. And I’ll always remember that there’s nothing that a yellow cake with chocolate icing can’t fix. Love you.
