Gary "Jet" Johnson was indeed a legend in the motorsports industry (racer and sales executive), a former Marine also.
His life ventures took him around the world.
He followed the company as an industry enthusiast/executive since the beginning, and joined us shortly after production, as the VP of Sales.
Did a great job, and was a great guy to be around, he inspired others with his positive attitude and skills.
He moved his family from WI to join EH, and then the company shut down, so that was impactful to his career. :-[
I've met with him many times over the years post-EH, as we shared a lot of stories past, present, and future.
He was proud of his Marine years, his family, and his career. His mind-health declined (Alzheimer's) so did have a rough last few years.
RIP.
