Kaspa, John Steiner

I am told that Kaspa, AKA John Steiner, is not doing well.
John has been an active forum member and an inspiration to many with his amazing builds.

John provided me with the basis on which to build my Brabham replica. He provided much knowledge and advice, and many of the parts necessary for me to complete the car.

I wish you the best John and I hope things go better for you than it seems at the moment.

Tim.

This is one of those times when words are pretty much useless.
'Very likely THEE time when they're totally useless.

But, I'm going to ignore that and say may God grant all those involved the strength they'll need to cope.

An update from Fran on Facebook —
Hi all
Thanks for all the messages and support over the last few days
John is slowly going down hill but is pain free and comfortable
He is thankful for all the love and support and we have read all your messages to him
He has even laughed at some of then
I will keep you all up to date as to what is happening
Thanks so much
 
John and I have been online mates for years, I sent him a surplus gear change mechanism probably 15 years ago and we have swapped ideas ever since. My late Carol and I had the good fortune to meet him at his home on the Gold Coast about 4 years ago when he was completing his McLaren. A great guy and will be sorely missed.
Regards Russell
