To Jarrad and everyone here at IDA,

Thank you for your kind words.

Family is the most important thing in life, and to see what has happened to the Evans family should be a reminder to everyone that life is fragile, and you should live every moment to it’s fullest.

It was just a blink of an eye ago that I myself suffered an injury that altered my families life for almost a year. Had it not been for the generosity of others at a time when my family needed it, I am not sure we would have made it through.

I pray my small offering will help the Evans family get through this in a time they need it the most.

Thank you gentleman, glad to be here.

Hey Jarrad.. Slay them at Erie!

Jarrad,

This is Rich Thompson, aka Hooked For Life on Chicagolandfishing.com, aka The Nuclear Lures Guy.

I was another one of the boys that came up and had a great, although too cold, trip back in March. ( at least we beat the 22 inches of snow that came just one week later)

This family is in my prayers and thoughts, and I wish them a speedy recovery.

Would like to raise the bid.
