Jeffrey Waltermyer wrote a sympathy message

“To the entire Colyer family it is with a heavy heart that I write this message to you. I send all my thoughts and prayers to you. I will never forget this great man as he taught me a lot about paint and body work in our younger years. We spent many overnights and weekends working on customer cars and trucks together. All great memories for me as well as getting to know your family. Thank you for letting me be a part of that. In closing I wish all of you the best. Sincerely Jeff Waltermyer”
