Very sad circumstances to loose life under! Let justice prevail.
RIP young man, and may the hearts of the family be consoled (tough as it may be). God heals mirraculously.

Good aftenoon all,

This is Lynette, his girlfriend of 6 yrs. Unfortunately Stephen did not finish his dream of one day building his beetle, but he started the project and was always so excited about it. His dad, brother and friend said they will honour his wish and carry on with the building of the car. That is what he would have wanted.

I'd like to thank all of you for your condolences. He was a major fan of this site and was constantly on it. He was a religious beetle fan.

Ps. I will post a photo of the beetle once its finished.
