He made me laugh with almost every post...I sure miss his sense of humor.

Kiwi - as others have said "we miss you" would be true for anybody who has ever met or talked to you.
In my office I still have a few photo's that you took and everyday I look at them and smile. 
Thanks for all the joy that you brought to many of us.

I have all the pictures I got from him placed around my garage, it always reminds me of him when I am working on my cars.  I look to them for inspiration.

He was a great guy and fun to work with. He is still sorely missed.

A great person and greatly missed, the memories will never fade of our interactions and I have all the pictures and items I got from him to continually remind me of him.  Every time I walk in my garage, I see him.

Kiwi was a great friend and human being, and lived his life at wide-open throttle.   

Many fun memories of driving fast, telling rude jokes, and eating at some truly horrible rural diners.

Hard to believe he's been gone for five years.

Rest In Performance, buddy.

We could really use his humor and banana throwing around here these days.  I miss his posts.  I wish I had met him.
