NASCAR Driver Dick Trickle: Dead at 71





Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog. As you may of heard, as seen in my picture and title, former NASCAR driver Dick Trickle passed away this past week after commiting suicide at a cemetary. Trickle had made 300 NASCAR starts in what was then called the Busch Series and the Winston Cup Series. He had suffered from chronic pain after losing his son a couple of years ago. While at the cemetary, a person had called the police after he felt Trickle was going to harm himself. When the police showed up, they found Trickle's body. He was 71 years old. This is very sad and I hope for the best for his family. Trickle will be missed. Tonight, in honor of Trickle, Carl Edwards will have Trickle's name on above the window instead of his. Thank you for your time.
