TRAGEDY
STRIKES IN RACING COMMUNITY
This past
Sunday, tragedy struck as Bobby Zurawski, son of #40 Bob Zurawski
and nephew of Blunderbust champion Frank Curtis and former Modified
racer Mike Curtis, was killed in a car accident.
The pits would
be a second home for the young Bobby, as he grew up watching his
father driving Late Models and his Uncle Frank dominating the
Blunderbusts.
Many in the
pits saw Bobby grow from a child to the fine young adult he became,
but unfortunately his life was taken all too soon.
Bobby had loved
the sport of racing and was his father’s #1 fan.
He loved to watch his Dad battle fellow competitors such as
Steve Tooker, of whom Bobby also cheered on.
Bobby is
survived by his father Bob, stepmother Debbie, his mother Liz, and confidant Carter.
Bobby will be
missed all those in the pits, as well as his family, and his
friends.
Condolences can
be sent to:
308 Myers Road
Westford,
NY 13488
