Collision Repair Education Foundation Executive Director
Scott Kruger said, “These individuals have made an extraordinary
commitment to collision repair schools and students and an
investment in the future of our industry. They represent a small
sample of our colleagues, co-workers, and friends who have
supported the Education Foundation out of their own pockets.
Thank you all for your support.”
I-CAR Instructor Tony Passwater noted, “Lon was a very good I-
CAR instructor and a very strong advocate for I-CAR, its
mission, and its value to the Industry. He was one of my first
great instructors when I was a Regional Manager that I could
count on. He then was a great Regional Manager and then
Instructor Training Manager. Most important he was a friend that
I always could count on. It is not often that individuals such
as Lon pass through your life, and his work and commitment to
this industry should never be forgotten.”
I-CAR Instructor Roy Taylor added, “While I did not have the
opportunity to meet Lon, with our mutual involvement in I-CAR
and our shared values and goals of providing continuing
education and training for the collision repair industry, this
small contribution seemed to be just the right thing to
do.”
The Lon Baudoux Legacy Scholarship was created in memory of I-
CAR Development Manager Lon Baudoux, who passed away on November
11, 2008. Lon had been an employee with I-CAR since 1997. He
highly valued education, especially for secondary and post-
secondary students studying collision repair.
