I never thought id be making this post.Unexpectedly today we lost a great man, father, colleague, and most of all a great FRIEND. Ed Thacker Poplar Inn Automotive will never ever be the same without you, our life will never be the same without you. You taught me sooooooo much over the many years, I will never forget all the long days and late nights at the shop, the early morning crashes we got to work together. Hell we just pulled my motor last night! I will never forget you and the influence and knowledge you gave to me. You were the big brother I never had and I will forever and ever hold you dear in my heart. Love you bro.
