RIP Alderman Joe Dudzik

Joe was a pretty active member here for a couple years, he and I got pretty close for a while there. He had a black AP2 with powder coated AP2v1 wheels iirc. Killed in a motorcycle accident last night. God dammit.

Damn. I remember Joe. He went to a couple dinner meets you set up in Milwaukee, he also was your ride to the Tilted Kilt lunch meet we had a few years back.





That's really sad

- I've made Joe an Honorary Member

Thanks, Sam. I had forgotten about that veilside tonneau cover haha!

If the funeral is public I'll go and extend condolences.

So sad to hear this. Didn't get to know him well but did have a couple conversations with him at meets. Every time there's mention of safe house, he pops into my mind. He got us to hookup to park our S2Ks in the government building across the street. He was very active here for a while. Came to a few Chicago area meets.

I am truly saddened about his passing. Rest in peace Joe. I'll always remember the time we saw you exiting safe house with two mission impossibles in hand as we were heading in.

Thank you for posting this, I was just about to.

Joe was a wonderful person to be around. He had a fantastic sence of humor and had a big heart.

Whenever I would hear in the local news that a milwaukee alderman Named Joe So-and-so (I coukd never remembered his last name for whatever reason), I would have a smile and think about Joe Dudzik In my mind I always thought about Joe when the words milwaukee, alderman, and Joe were in the same sentence.

I will miss him very much.

RIP Joe

Very sad news indeed. Thanks Charlie for posting and thanks Sam for making him an honorary member.

He was a very active member of this community for a time, he contributed to the group and was a great person to lift everyone's spirit.
Truly a sad day, my thoughts are with his family and loved ones.
