I think he would say something about Roadhaus like this:

Gentlemen:

 Roadhaus is fixed. (again and for the last time).
While coming back to MTL to pick up a Friend, the fourth gear died....As
much as I have triple checked that Van I couldn't know a bout a Tranny
failure, so Larry didn't tell me, I read it elsewhere, at the same time I
had a good spare tranny offer....  but being in a very difficult time in my
life, I wasn't sure that I would have the energy to do that heavy
job.....but we did it!!!! (2 nights) as a group of human beings....

Thanks to the help of  a few:
-Nath And Markus from Ottawa  who lended us a 4WD Tranny, they came just for
that... and they gave a hand on top, as I was sick as a dog, my
interventions were limited.

-JP, you don't care about these guys, nobody will never meet him, he is my
friend, what a mechanic, he gave his time for changing the engine and now
for the tranny......he has a heart big like the universe, without him, it
was a no go.
(Well, maybe you will meet him some day.... we are opening a VW shop in
Montreal so you never know)
 Thanks a bunch BRO.

Well, there is Larry, who is dirty la a dog..... he he he, he did most of
the heavy work load... he is dead, tired, a grateful to a point of no
return.

I did enough for Roadhaus, or should I say Larry, Roadhaus is just a Van,
but all that will remain  after he is back home......a guy, a dog, a dream,
a lots of friends and many stories to tell.

Did I do to much for him???  How much can you give in life while perfectly
knowing that this person will never be able to repay you fully?  (Larry's
words)????.... Maybe...maybe... I don't know, but it still feel good inside.
But am done, dead, finish and sick like a dog (101F)

Go brother, run to Nova Scotia and finish yout trip..... After, there is a
new life waiting for you, somewhere, somehow.....
