OMG I knew he was not doing so well and was in a wheel chair to get around. My wife and I met this man and his wife in person at Sebring, some years ago. We use to work the race every year and was always invited to the preface dinner. That year Sir Sterling Moss was the Grand Marshall for the race. Well at the dinner my wife and I sat at a table that was unoccupied, well low and behold Sterling and his lovely wife as if it would be ok to sit at our table. WOW. He told us stories of his racing days and in particular driving the MB (#722) SLR in the Mille Miglia of 1955. People came up to our table asking for autographs and asking about his many race wins. Also asked what kind of car he was driving for the family car, a new Mini. What a class act he was. This was an experience that I will never top. So sad to loose a racing treasure.
