SOAR racer Daryl Ironmonger

I pray you keep fighting, Daryl, and surprise everyone when you open your eyes and show them the big smile I've seen on photos of you! I don't know you, but so many people loving you for the person you are can't be wrong! Hang on, good fella!

You shouldn't of posted that. He's his brother, he knows more then
we do, it's disrespectful to say that. It's obvious they are ready for Daryl to pass on, and I'm sure Nancy would rather be at his side for his final days then be posting on fb.

Bill, the point is that many people will think like it happen last night that he passed away, last night the Daughter had to post on facebook that he is still alive because there were people posting RIP posts.

Anyways, here is not the spot to discuss this, please use your brain before calling me disrespectful, there was a reason why I posted this.
 
Update from Nancy:

[h=5]Daryl Ironmonger
[/h][h=5]hi to everyone! between yesterday afternoon, last evening and even today, I also wanted to re-assure all of Daryl's supporting friends that Daryl has most definetely has not passed on!! I want to thank endlessly all of his friends who went by to visit him last night and today! we all know how much he loveesss attention! I soo appreciate everyone who still continues to hold on and stay strong and positive for Daryl! I am faced with the most difficult decisions I will truly ever have to make in my life!! I had a true soul searching day today, talking to 'myself', god and Daryl.. somewhere he hears me.... one of other 'angel bears' sleeps right by my side and I believe Daryl is watching over me holding my hands and walking with me.... It has been so difficult for all of us family to watch him each day and night and still not waking up... I Wish with all heart that I have left, that he would just 'wake up' and get pinky ready for this weekends last race at Grand Bend, however, the reality sits terribly inside of me of what I must do as he would want.. This sunday October 6th, will be our one year wedding anniversary and today I bought one dozen red roses for us as he would have done for us on Sunday! Each month he always bought me a rose on every 6th of the day! I will continue to do this for 'us' each month on that same day.. with all of my love... Thank you ever so much again to absolutely everyone who is on Daryl's journey! I want to wish everyone who is heading up to Grand Bend this final weekend a safe and great ride to end the year! RIDE FOR DARYL, RIDE FOR PINKY god bless, xo nancy see you later my love xoxox[/h]
 
Sticker's were graciously created/donated by sunny and drew from trackside cuts for round 6 at Soar.

Have a couple of extra's if anyone is interested, asking for a small donation is appreciated, i will give all the proceeds to Daryl's wife.

From Daryl's mom today

Just got back from the hospital and the day we have dreaded has finally arrived.The doctor has put Daryl on what they call an " End of Life 'journeywhich means they will not treat any infections, he will not be revivedif his heart stops beating or if he has a seizure.He will not be in pain and he will leave this world with dignity. Our hearts are breakingat the thought of never seeing our son again or seeing that beautiful smiling faceor hearing his laughter. Our hearts are breaking we love you so much Daryl.Nite nite sleep tight see you in the morning Sweet dreams. Love You Loads.xxxxxx

That's terrible news. I had high hopes that he will get better by now.. I still harbor a faint hope.
 
kneedraggin101, I'm going to visit him tomorrow (Tues Oct 8th) after my physio around 130pm. If you would like to join me, you are more than welcome to. I'm going to do my best to visit him as much as possible this week.

Jayv, I would love a sticker if you still have some! Please let me know. I know a few others that would very much appreciate one as well.
 
When you reach the other shore
Walk slowly down that long winding road
For we are not long behind you
And we shall call your name until we meet again

My heart goes out to all of his friends and family.

How do we count the lives he touched,
The light he shed for years?
How do we see the difference he made
When we are looking through our tears?

How do we know the things that are
That never would have been
Without his valiant heart that dared
To fight and fight again?

How do we measure the shining place
That time can never pale
In all the hearts that cheered him on
And willed him to prevail?

How did his spirit soar beyond
The suffering and the scars
To live with one hand clutching hope
And the other on the stars?

We may not know what he leaves behind
On the difficult path he led.
But we know this much: His life’s brief touch
Leaves us all with tears to shed.
 
Although I only met Daryl (a guy with a huge smile) once - earlier in the season, this is a very difficult thread to choke down, considering recent developments.
To his family & close friends, what will be will be.
To say "sorry" is not sufficient, so I won't.
Keep your chins up, for Daryl.

Really sorry to hear the news. My prayers go out to Daryl, his family and his friends during this difficult time.
 
I havent been checking gta much lately, sad to see this news. Daryl came on one of my posted rides last year, turns out I'd met his relative malcolm years ago, unusual last names will do that. We had a great time that day and I'd hoped that he'd get out for another rip but seems that a wedding and track stuff were his replies since! Haha! Riders like Daryl are such a huge part of what motorcycling is about to many of us, these people make it FUN. I hope that everything goes as well as possible for Daryl and his family. My thoughts and prayers are with you guys.

Tony and I are going to see him again tomorrow after work if you haven't gone yet. Text Tony if you want to join us. Or PM me.

I went to visit Daryl alone last Friday and had the opportunity to talk to his sister. I understand why they came to the decision that they did and I feel they're making the choice that Daryl would want.

All of this is so difficult. I feel so terribly for his family. Especially his daughter and wife.

I'm saddened to hear this news about Daryl. I also understand that difficult choices that his family has to make. I can only hope that his final days are pain-free and easy.

It was an honour and pleasure riding with him.
