Does anybody remember Joe Laquerre Jr? According to my ancestry he raced out of Vermont and raced with the likes of the Petty's.

I was just sadly reading of the death of Joey Laquerre in a recent ATV accident.

I saw a picture of his grave site and it had a huge statue of a race car with his number on it. At least it looked like his grave site.
