Title: Ernie LeBlanc - RIP
Post by: ossaracer on March 06, 2009, 08:35:28 PM
We had another sad event at the Gatorback vintage race -  Ernie LeBlanc  long time vintage rider (I think another Husky rider)  crashed heavily at high speed and sustained head injuries.  Sadly,  he passed away due to the injuries this week.  Please also say a prayer for Ernie and his family.

Ernie, His brother Muff and i along with my brother Robbie had many a battles back in the 70's. Ernie was one of the most warm humans you would have ever met. A very kind and caring person. Ernie leaves behind 2 sons. Arrangements are being announced shortly and i will post them if anyone is interested in them. Ernie was calling the Gonzales area of Louisiana home. please join me in prayer for the entire LeBlanc family. Ernie, you may be gone my friend but you'll never be forgotten.
