Memorial Tribute Cruise-in for Bruce Lorimer. It was heartwarming to see such an incredible turnout to honour such a fine gentleman. It was wonderful to see so many friends turnout to pay their respects to Bruce. While it could have been a somber occasion, I was in my glory, being among friends and taking photos of classic cars ♥
