Very sad day for the Greer Dragway Family. I understand Helen Coggins passed away last night. Remember to keep John and Family in prayers. Would have loved to have had a profile sheet of her and what all she has seen in racing over the years.

Helen will definitely will be missed. She and John both have been GREER DRAGWAY from the beginning. Helen not only helped with doing the track photography but she had a big hand in the Easter bunny & prizes give away every year. There are other things she was involved with @ the track but those things really stick out in my mind. Lets everyone continue to remember the family in these upcoming difficult times.
