    As I was getting things ready for the Gtg on leech my dad had a massive stroke on the fourth. He was left with very little movement and zero speech. It was horrific, but not a complete surprise. He suffered from very high blood pressure for almost forty years, coupled with congestive heart failure for the last five years.

    He passed away on the seventh.

    We enjoyed many experiences in my younger years…canoe trips, fishing, Indian Guides, squirrel hunting, great camping trips,and on and on.

    He’ll be sorely missed.

    belletaine,prayers sent for you and yours,I lost my dad in ’92,the last time I went fishing with him was in ’89 near bemidji,but that is what I thought,every time I go to that lake,he is with me guiding me.

    yours will too,just listen for him,whether its the wind in the pines,or the splashes of the waves,something will strike a memory,and you will hear his voice.
    so sorry for your loss.

    Very sorry to hear about this BT. I think there’s a special bond between fathers and sons when hunting and fishing is involved. Nothing replaces that man who showed us the way in the first place.

    Sorry for your loss. You’ll meet him again in a place with clear lakes and green forests and fields.
