    Bob Ellison has passed on. He was involved in a crash at Indy. He suffered severe head trauma and didn't recover. He was owner and driver of the Ellison - McGarvey 33 willy's. Bob also owned the Boston Strangler Funny car driven by Arnie Karp in the 80's and 90's. He will be missed here in the Northeast. My thoughts and prayers go out to Shirley and the family.
