Four years ago, 25 classic-car enthusiasts joined the annual Not Forgotten: Memorial Day weekend event at Woodward Park in Manteca.Last year, the number swelled to 300 cars. This year, some 350 owners of classic cars are expected to show off not only their shiny four wheelers but also, and more importantly, to honor and to remember the brave men and women who have served their country and the fallen heroes who gave their all, including Manteca’s own Marine Cpl. Charles O. Palmer II.“The car show is in memory of Charles Palmer (II); it’s a memorial classic car show,” said Louie Wyrsch who will have two of his own that will be on display at Woodward Park – his beloved 1971 Camaro and his 1965 Chevy Nova. The Camaro is a sentimental favorite for Wyrsch and his wife, Jewell.
