In May of 2006, the had a special exhibit entitled, "NASCAR Inspired". Some 200+ pieces of artwork was displayed with a racing theme. I was honored when Ned Jarrett agreed to speak to me about the event. He could not have been any more kind and gracious.
There was never a pretense with Ned. He was exactly who he sounded like on radio and TV. Warm. Polite. Southern. Gentlemen.
What an amazing person. Rest in peace, Gentleman Ned.
