Guys, I know this is last minute, but it this would be a very neat event to visit, there will be some interesting BMW's in attendance. The event is in accordance with Leif's wish to be remembered not by a funeral but rather a BMW show.
For those who don't know Leif is pretty much the grand-daddy of california's love affair with BMW. He started what became the Los Angeles BMWCCA. Ask any long-time BMW guy and they'll know Leif and what he's done.
Here's the BMWCCA message: http://www.bmwclubla.org/calendar.php

Sunday, April 29: A Celebration of Life - Leif Anderberg
Noon to 5 PM ssssssssssss Open to All
Leif and Fia Anderberg founded the Los Angeles Chapter in 1970. They dedicated untold amounts of time, energy and effort to making the Chapter as successful as it is today. Leif and Fia complemented each other to an amazing extent and Fia's death in 1997 left a huge whole in Leif's heart and life. He has rejoined her now, and we are celebrating.
Knowing they are together again makes mourning unnecessary - but they always liked a big party so that's what they are getting.
Bratwurst, beer and BMW's - a tribute to a wonderful couple.
Drinks are available at the snack bar, but you may bring your own non-alcoholic sodas and water.
In honor of Leif's sweet tooth, please bring some cookies to share.
If you have special or vintage BMW that you want to park on the infield for this celebration, please email to the contact below.
(Notice of this non-BMW CCA event is provided as a benefit for all who knew and cared for the Anderbergs.)
