    Default Cleo Speed

    Cleo Speed, our lane Doctor/Mechanic had his retirement party yesterday at the AMF that is closing! He worked most of his 35 years at this AMF! He was a Super mechanic and knew how to fix and lay oil with the best of them. My wife and me purchased a few gift cards for him in appreciation for a JOB WELL DONE!!

    Cleo is 65, and although he could probably keep on going, doing what he loved to do, with the closing of the AMF, he decided to go ahead and retire.
    My Wife and me wish him the BEST!! He was not only a great lane mechanic in the short time I have known him, but turned out being a good FRIEND!!

    Happy Retirement Cleo.... If you ever want to go treasure hunting with Iceman, give me a call,,,,, (I gave you my number!) (





    The cake says ENJOY YOUR SPARE TIME!!! (

    Default Thanks for the memories cleo

    Thanks Cleo for the two 300's, and 780 this last year! The excellent application and consistency of your oil helped make it happen! Now this score board will be disassembled and thrown into the dumpster! But the memories will last Iceman the rest of his life!
