Sad news from Speedsource
I am really saddened by the news that Carol Tremblay, the wife of Sylvain Tremblay, was killed in a car accident last Friday in S. Florida. Please keep the Tremblay family and Speedsource team in your prayers.

Here's the write up from Grand-Am:
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (Dec. 15, 2008) - The Grand-Am family suffered a tragic loss on Thursday when Carol Campbell Tremblay was involved in a fatal traffic accident in South Florida, not far from her home in Coral Springs.
Carol was the devoted wife of Grand-Am Rolex Series driver Sylvain Tremblay. She was the first investor in SpeedSource, and went on to be the office manager, and biggest supporter of her husband's dream of racing. She loved going to the races with her sons as a team, and a family.
Carol, 44, was born in Johnson City, N.Y. on March 10, 1964, the youngest of three sisters. She graduated from James Madison University with a BA in English. On December 7, 1996, she married the love of her life, Sylvain Tremblay.
She was a loving mother whose presence was an immeasurable light, always positive and filled with joy. The light of her life was her two boys Daniel and Alec. Carol loved to donate her time, and was a very active and supportive member of the PTA at Country Hills Elementary school in Coral Springs, Fla.
She is survived by two sons, Daniel Colin Tremblay, 9, Alec Benjamin Tremblay, 6, and her husband, all of Coral Springs; her two sisters Catherine Stine of Seattle, Connie Campbell of Arlington, Va., her mother Polly M. Harris of Fairfax, Va., and her father L. Reginald Campbell of Manassas, Va.
A celebration of her life will be held on Saturday, Dec. 20, 2008 from 5-7 p.m. at the Embassy Suites in Deerfield Beach, Fla. In lieu of flowers, a donation can be made to the Carol Tremblay Children Trust Fund.

Wow, this is so sad,
When I went to the NJ race she made sure I felt welcome in the garage and kept buggin Sylvain to get me hat and she was the one that made sure everyone signed it, she will be missed...
Is anyone putting together a support letter or something that we can send to the SpeedSource family???

Rotr8, want to front a presentation when you get to Daytona?
I can't find a site for the Carol Tremblay Childrens Trust Fund. A presentation from the RX-8 Club would be a decent gesture to a great guy, driver and team.
Donations, anyone? I don't "do" Christmas, so I've got some spare...

Most of all my heart goes out to their children. To loose a mother at such a young age. Sad day indeed.
