Dirt Dobber has died

[Motorcycle Mike]

It is with a heavy heart I report that on Tuesday, Jim Hayes aka Dirtdobber died from burns received in a fire in his home.
I got this information off the VTXOA.com where we have both been members for along time. Jim was well known as someone who would go out of his way to help anyone. Aparently, he went into the house to rescue his wife. She had made it out.

Very Sad news. Our prayers and condolences go out to his Family.
The way he passed from this earth speaks highly of what type of Man he was, as he passed trying to help and save his loved ones he thought were still in the burning Home. He stayed to the end, never giving up on finding and rescuing them.


RIP my friend

As a retired fire capt and medic I have heard of and seen many times rescuers being lost in a fire situation.
This news saddens my heart and brings a woeful tear to my eye. My prayers go out to his family.
