Courtney Hizer
« on: December 01, 2010, 04:22:20 PM »
  For those of you who don't allready know, longtime Bonneville racer and 200 mph club member Courney Hizer is having very serious health problems.
  The family is not accepting phone calls at this time, however, cards may be sent to:
                      Courtney Hizer
                       10 Jefferson Drive
                         Rome, Georgia
                                      30165
  Courtney is a great guy, and many of you have shared cigars and possibly a coctail or two with him.
  He could really use some good cheer, so how about sending him a card or two.
                                                                 thanx, Bob

  For those who don't know, Courtney has terminal brain cancer, so encouraging messages or reminding him of past hijink's would be helpfull.       Thanx, Bob

  Thank's Paul.  Courtney was a true Southern Gentleman.  
  As a racer, He could have set a lot more records by copying other's, but he liked to innovate and march to a different drummer.
  I will miss him, his cigars, and visiting with his charming wife Vila.
  Rest in peace Courtney.  I am sure you can buy Cubans in Heaven.               Bob

I'm saddened to hear about Courtneys passing. Although I'd only got to speak with him a handful of times, he was a real delight and always happy to spend some time chatting. His friends and family will be in our prayers. Godspeed Courtney.

My Heart goes out to the family and the crew of the #80 !!!!!!!
Courtney Hizer was a true Land Speed Racer always fun to be
around and he could always tell great stories. And one thing he
did have was a fast racecar. We always would pit together I will
miss him .  Like I said one of my HERO's
             God Speed on that new salt you went to.
