    I lost my Father on Friday. I’m so lost for words he was my hero .. I lost my best friend an hunting an fishing buddy . The time I spent with him in the outdoors are my most cherished times spent. No words can describe the emotions I have went through in the last few days . I want too say thank you Dad for being my best friend and a great Father .

    I am sorry. He will still be hunting with you every time you are out. I swear my dad, who has passed on, watches out for me on all of my hunts. It is in the peace of the outdoors, that I think of him most, and get the strongest feeling that he is still around keeping an eye on me.

    I think G stated it very well! A very sad time, but you have made memories that will carry you a lifetime!

    My sincerest condolences Tony. My dad is doing well and could be with me for another 20 years or…… we never really know but I know when that day comes, I’m almost afraid of what I might feel. He too, has become my best friend and I couldn’t love or respect him more. I can only imagine how hard this is……. the thought alone brings me to my knees!

    Let us know if there’s anything we can do! I know I’d have to lean on some friends during something like this so just let us know. A lot of genuine, caring people here on IDO.

    I appreciate all the kind words and prayers . As I read this I have a sheer tear in my eyes . I’m trying to remain strong for my family on this Christmas Day . We’re having Christmas at my house , but I find myself wanting too be alone in my den . I pray The Lord will give me the strength too get through this . I keep finding myself asking “why” ? It’s a question that may be never answered …..
