Zak Nilsson + 30 years

[Brent Meints]

Luis, the Scott Higashi loss really hit me too. I had been talking with him
quite a bit and even convinced him to make me one last set of rear hats for
my NX. That was maybe 6 months before he passed. I couldn't believe it. We
have certainly had a lot of loss in the community the last few years with
Jay, Zak, Charlie Barnes, Scott and others. Rough go lately.
