Once again thank y’all so much. Mom and I are taking it day by day. I can see why he loved you guys so much, all of the well wishes and stories are awesome. My dad would never go to a “shrink” in a million years, I appreciate you being his therapy over the years.

Fishfightersdaufhter,

I was really saddened to read about your father’s passing, but so happy that he got to slip away peacefully after a wonderful time together with his family.

I am a longtime lurker on the ODB. I rarely, if ever, post on this forum. But, fishfighter was always one of my favorite posters on here, someone who I aspired to be more like. I never met him, but a very good friend of mine had the pleasure of taking part in one of the pirogue builds. I always thought that was one of the coolest things anyone could have ever done for his fellow ODB’ers.

My prayer is that my sons will be able to express half of the love, admiration and respect that you shared about your Dad when my time comes. **They are both teenagers now, so I’ve got a ways to go with that. ;-)

Prayers for your Mom and the entire family as y’all carry on the legacy that he left behind.

Prayers answered friend. But I know your reading it.

And the pirogue is still top notch.
