I found out this morning Will, so sorry to hear. I'm just up the road if you need to 'get away' for a bit.

Sorry to hear of your loss Will. I went throught that a few years ago and know how sad a day it is. Keep your chin up.

Sorry for your loss, and my honest condolences.

 

In my family, we don't mourn the loss - we celebrate the life. Your pictures suggest you have a lot of happy memories. May they only grow fonder with time.

Hey Will - A very sad time indeed. Very sorry for the loss of your father. Keep strong and hold the great memories that you had with him while he lived with you. You are very lucky to have had such a great fishing partner. Your dad will live on in many forms from this day on.

Grab one of his lures and hang it in the boat

Sorry to hear of your loss.

Dan's suggestion is a good one.

Seeing my dad's lures in my tackle box means he's he's always with me on the water.

Thanks again everyone, some very kind words from some truly great people. Just thought I put up a couple more shots that I've come across.

 

I don't think dad could be more comfortable. lol! Ice bungalow on Nippissing.

 

 

The tough old bird hauling his gear out for some late season perchin'

 

 

Still trying to figure out who is more ugly in this shot. Yes Dad, I can see you flipping the bird at me.

 

 

Father's day 2010. OOS Bucket but so glad I took the time to grab a quick shot.

 

 

One of the few times we actually got out on his birthday.

 

 

And finally this shot just says it all. A man and his love of Canada's great outdoors.

 

 

Just noticed that the rod in the foreground has a bit of a bend! Fish on!! lol!

 

Thanks for taking a look at a few of my great memories.

AWESOME idea Dan. Thanks for the suggestion. Since I bought him so much of his gear over the years it's the least he can do for me. Seriously though a very good idea, I think I'll look for the most beat up one.

A great tribute to your dad....my condolences to you and your family.

My sincerest condolences Will.

 

I hadn't seen this thread before e-mailing you this morning.

 

The offer still stands.

My condolences to you and your family. I can tell by how fondly he is remembered by his son that he was a good man.
