From the first time I met Mr. Lagana at a rest stop on the NJ Turnpike, Twilight Zone Ramp truck with either the TF car or the Fuel altered was parked and he was walking in. Asked him a couple of questions about the car and he was happy to take the time to answer with a big smile on his face. It was night time and I'm sure it was a long fun day of racing. It didn't matter, he was happy to chat with me and that always stuck with me. Then I started working at Etown and was excited every time they came to the track. At this past Etown Nationals, my son and I went over to say hello. Mr. Lagana working on the car and invited Billy to watch, my son didn't move just watched. He loved every minute of it. My son was hungry and asked that I go get him something to eat, I said ok lets go… Nope, he got to hang with Bobby, Dom, Pops and the crew, told me what he wanted and I was off. Came back and my son was helping with the tune up in the office. Who does that?? No one but the Laganas. Mr. Lagana, it was an honor and a privilege to have known you. You will forever be in our hearts. Our condolences to the entire Lagana family. The Andrew Family NJ
