I just found out yesterday about the death of Kevin Wightman, one of my friendly competitors at North Shore of Lake Tahoe...

http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/desere ... =155719703




He was an avid skier...also appeared in a movie..http://www.imdb.com/name/nm3599636/

and was recognized by the USSA... United States Ski and Snowboard Association

He was a good guy to have as a fellow cleaner...one time I asked him to help me out because my truck was getting a new transmission...he spent a whole day cleaning my jobs...and yes, I paid him well for the day!

Rest in Peace, Kevin

Kevin was a good friend, father, customer and more importantly he was a great man. He will be sorely missed around here.

Sorry to hear that. ;-(

He was certainly a fantastic snow skier! He was a stuntman in the movie Hot Dogs too? Wow!

Did you ever find out what happened?

I can't help but wonder if he was involved in a snow ski accident.

I found out through his employee that he took his own life. Jaime still seemed pretty broke up about it so I didn't ask which method he used. It sounds like his divorce hit him a little harder than most thought.
