    In Memoriam: Marauderboi

    It is with an extremely heavy heart I bring the news of Alex Vachon's passing. The Lord took him from us today (13Aug 2010) to serve in a greater capacity elsewhere. The family is in shock and disbelief as am I, but I thought I should pass this information on.

    I would suspect it would be best to wait until arrangements are made for donations, flowers, etc. I will do the best I can to post any further information as quickly as it becomes available. There's not much we can say or do at the moment but pray for Dave, Abbey, Summer and the rest of Alex's extended family!

    May God hold him and keep his memory eternal!

    Jake
    Alex, you'll always be with us!

    He is a great kid, I was supposed to meet up with him and dad Dave next weeekend. God bless him and his family. Again awsome kid, full of life, and love for our cars. Whatever I say won't be enough.
    Dave and family you are in my prayers.
    Landy.

    Very sad news indeed. I regret that I never met Alex in person; but have followed his posts here on the site for years it seems. Sincerest condolences to Dave and to his family and friends. Will keep them in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

    I'm sorry for the loss. Alex was "one of a kind"
    (#6178 in black per FPIC)
    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:
    Alex "Marauderboi" Vachon 3/2/92-8/13/10
    Paula Babineau 1/9/67-8/2/11
    Rex Weinbender
    Peter

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.

    I haven't been on in a few hours. MarauderTJA just called me and broke the news. I'm heartbroken and the tears are flowing. We met Alex at MV4 and again at the SSM picnic last year. As I just said to Tom, his age didn't matter. He loved the car and was more mature than some twice his age. May he rest in peace. His life was cut short much too soon. Much love to Dave and the family.
