We were fortunate to have met Beverly and Allen at the Gene Berg Rally at Classic one year, they were a lot like Paul- very nice with a wonderful sense of humor. They told us all kind of stories about them growing up together. I was always impressed with how humble they were, they had some nice cars and had been into VW's a long time but they didn't flaunt it, they were very super cool people. -----Original Message----- From: tcb-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:tcb-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of singlecabboy Sent: Wednesday, October 18, 2006 2:14 AM To: tcb Subject: [tcb] The question was ask about the memorial crueze Allen ,Beverly and Kenny Flentge were 3 very avid Vw fans , Allen and Bob got me back into the VW hobby after a long layoff. Allen had a GTI , Jetta , 67 Westy , an oval bug , Bev had a EMPI Sportster, Many of you on this list know them , ate with them at E.S. , The Classic in California , and so many other places , they rarely showed their cars , it just wasn't their style , Kenny had a nice 62 bug, Allen and Beverly never got the westy finished , they instead put my truck in front of them at the body shop saying I had been through enough trouble with body men already , They used to teas e me about them creating a monster by having the Zone finished and theirs not . But again that's the type folks they were . Lois and I almost always ate supper with them on Fri. Night , Allen Kenny and I almost always ate breakfast at Kevin's restraint on Sat .morning . That Sat morning Allen and Kenny went to pick up Beverly and go to the Bell county expo center where Kenny had his 62 Impala in a show. I went to work at 2:00 . at 5: p.m. I got a call that some folks in a bug had gotten murdered by a guy in a Jeep , passed 6 cars in a no passing zone and hit them head on . The crash was in Allen's side ditch ,the guy swerved to the shoulder and killed the jeep driver and his Friend , and murdered Allen ,Beverly and Kenny Flentge. The mother of the one boy was letting him drink beer at the beer joint across from the cemetery at 195 and state 95 near Heidenhiemer . Up on the hill by the barbed wire fence are three metal crosses and a Bus n Bugtober fest t shirt hung over the crosses. Paul Smith www.23window.com/thezone T.C.B. H.B.B.
