Title: Frank Silva
Post by: Seldom Seen Slim on July 26, 2013, 05:35:27 PM

I just heard that there's a story moving around that Frank Silva has died.  Can anyone confirm this - or if he's not well, or if he's alive and kicking and getting a good laugh out of hearing that he has passed on to the great race course in the sky?

If I remember correctly -- Franks the guy from the Got Salt car/crew, right?

The sun on the salt shines a little brighter today. I will miss you my friend. Thank you for everything. Godspeed, Frank.

Living yesterday and gone today.

It's the end we will all achieve.

We lost a good one.

Thanks for calling, John.

I'll think of him every time I wear one of Cruisn T's shirts.

He was some guy to have as a G'Pa.

I have lost a great friend, we have all lost a good guy. He gave our family caring and kindness.

He truly "GOT" Salt.

I will truly miss him.

Sorry to hear that news!

Here is an image I shot last year with the crew firing the engine on the car in the pits.
