In memory...

Today’s post comes with a sad heart. Longtime driver and 2004 Craftsman Truck Series champion Bobby Hamilton died Sunday at his Tennessee home at the age of 49.

In an interview with NASCAR Scene in late October, Hamilton was speaking optimistically of his fight with neck and head cancer.

You can send messages to his family at www.nascar.com.

The NASCAR website also reports Benny Parsons remains in Intensive Care at Carolinas Medical Center with complications of his lung cancer. He was hospitalized Dec. 26.

You can continue to send BP some encouraging words by e-mailing him at bp@goprn.com. He’s received thousands of messages there from fans wishing him well and urging him to keep fighting.
