Charlie Hulsizer wrote a sympathy message

“Condolences to Rory's family. We were friends for 50 plus years. He was always there for a helping hand. Rory taught me the fine points of pulling an engine (Chevy of Course) in the street on a sunday morning. He was very dedicated to Keeping his Mom's blue T-bird in top shape. His work was first class. Will miss his kindness and wit. I guess that someone in Heaven has a Chevy that needs a paint job! RIP, Mr. Bwell. Dar and Charlie Hulsizer”
