Long time WMRC member and friend Kathy Hubble's father Donn passed away yesterday. A father who encourages his daughter to race (roadrace, dirtbike racing, flat tracking!), learn judo, travel, fly planes, you know he had a great attitude. I only met him a few times, but he was always down to earth, friendly and interesting.
My thoughts and best wishes go to Kathy, I'm sure she will always miss him.

Edit, it was Kathy that got Donn into flying planes!

So sorry to hear that. My thoughts go out to the whole family. Was Donn a racer as well?

Yes, this is very sad news indeed. I believe Donn was a racer during the Westwood days... at least I think Kathy told me that.

My thoughts are with the family.

Donn raced up at Westwood. He will be missed by many.
Rest in Peace and condolences to the family.

Donn for sure raced a sidecar at Westwood.
And he was pretty swift on a dirtbike as of last summer!

If you can get through this CBC radio interview with Kathy about her dad without being moved to tears, you're stronger than I am:
