Mrs. Al Eames, who along with her husband Al were very instrumental in bringing the 1973 ISDT to the Unites States has passed away. The link below will take you to her obituary.

There are not words enough to thank Al and Marie for all they did, nor words enough to convey what wonderful folks they were.

In thinking about Al and Marie Eames, it occurred to me that Al was most likely in the AMA Hall Of Fame, and sure enough he is deservingly in the Hall Of Fame. The link below will take you to his Hall of Fame bio.

Al was the man behind the Berkshire Trials, the 100cc Penton is named after that event, the Berkshire, a fact that I realize that many if not all of you know, just wanting to give credit where credit is do.

Paul , if memory serves me correctly, I think she use to work check points and was the secretary of NETRA back in the 80's. I may be confusing her with somebody else,
it was 30 years ago?
