Sorry for your loss; I've always found this proverb to help me through times like this and gain some perspective....

Say not in grief 'he is no more' but live in thankfulness that he was

My condolences.

Thanks T-Bone  ,I think I'll keep that one in my memory bank .
My Buddy Scotty was always the 1 in our group eager to join me venturing into a new area of the lake , or up an unknown creek or down an un-charted path .Despite our differing years we seemed to share a joy for new adventure . Many many a fishing adventure , brown pop or good times we shared and never a cross word from the man to anyone .He was always a stable ,calming force no matter the situation .He will be missed

Thoughts are with you pike mike.   

Friends like that are hard to come by and when they stay in your life a while, it is amazing, making the loss very difficult.  As T-Bone's message says... remember who he was and the good times.  I am sure Scotty appreciated your friendship as well.
