BlackCam passed away

[Ends]

I have some sad news. One of our old members, Eric Mansfield (BlackCam) passed away last week. His son has reached out to me about needing some help in selling his Camaro. If anyone would like to help or give some information that could be helpful, I would appreciate it. I let his son know that I would be glad to help out in anyway that I can. Thanks.

Sorry to hear that. Pass on our condolences to his loved ones.

I looked at his member page but am not remembering the name or the car. If someone has a picture of him, that would be great.
