<< Tigers (and Alpiners),
 
 It is my unfortunate task to inform you that long-time Sunbeam enthusiast
 and all-around great guy, Ole Olsen of San Diego passed away this morning.
 Ole contributed to this list and did a wonderful job of poking fun at all of
 us and our foibles.
 
 It is said that Ole was one of the founders if not the founder of the
 Sunbeam Owners Group of San Diego. A long time owner of Alpines, Ole
 purchased the first Tiger in San Diego County. He later returned the car to
 the dealer and got another Alpine because the dealer "could never get the
 damn thing to run, let alone run right." Ole said the car died on him
 everywhere and often in the most dangerous and unfortunate places.
 
 I will personally miss Ole's outstanding spirit, level head and great sense
 of humor. He was a good man. We will miss him.
 
 As I am not a member of the Alpine list, will someone be so kind as to
 forward this message on?
 
 Peace.
