Evel Kneivel

Evel Kneivel has passed away at the age of 69. He was one of my childhood heroes. I think that I watched every jump he made. I had quite a few Evel Kneivel toys. My favorite was a device you cranked (yellow) to send the motorcycle and doll flying through the air at a high rate of speed. The kind of toys that needed an imagination. I spent countless hours with my brother Travis jumping things.
It has been recently brought to my attention that he gave his heart to the Lord. I guess we'll see you there Evel ... I mean Robert !
