“Yesterday Zac Brunkala passed away tragically. He used to have Hollie Myers bring him to my place to pickup his race parts. Since, I have known him. He went from a customer to a friend. He even helped me out this last Mothers Day to make sure I could attend one myself by towing my car to a repair place. I will never forget you and our friendship. RIP my friend. My condolences and prayers for Hollie and the kids.” _Dan Chervenak
“…Sending my condolences and prayers to Richard Brunkala and the entire Brunkala family for the passing of Zac. In today’s world it’s very very rare, you find a dad who adores their children and family, makes them a priority, puts them before himself, will help anyone out he could, as much as he did and he checked every box off and then some. Just from my 4 years around him, he’s grown immensely in every which way possible. Honestly more than anyone I’ve probably ever seen. Life is unfair man, and we’re gonna miss you like hell down here but give them hell up there 47x…” _Sabastian Del Corral
