Sad News

[Oarin]

I received terrible news this morning. Capt. Guy, my long time fishing partner and best friend, passed away last night. I can't believe it. He was bigger than life. He taught me most everything I know about fishing and was always there for me. I will miss him so much. Gary.

On, @Oarin , sincerest condolences go to you and his family. It was easy to see how much you guys enjoyed your time together fishing. So sorry to hear this.

Thanks Nancy, there will be a huge void in my life until my time comes too.

Hi Gary:

The news of Mark's passing is just unbelievable shocking news. I'm sitting here in front of my display just shaking my head. I so much enjoyed the couple of hours each August that I got to visit with you and Mark at the Auberge. I'm going to miss those visits. RIP Mark.  My condolences Gary.

Thanks Jay, I know Mark enjoyed our visits too, as did I. I'll miss him. Gary.

     I am sorry to hear this news Oarin, though I never met him in person, he has been a part of the two discussion boards and has loved Kipawa for a long time. He will definitely be in our thoughts and prayers...

Sorry for your loss Oarin. It was only a few days ago that I read your comments about Guy in your recent post of "How you found out about Kipawa?" I am sure Guy appreciated reading such nice comments and appreciated your friendship equally.

One Saturday morning about 3-4 years ago my wife and I were having breakfast at the Canadian Motel restaurant and struck up a conversation with a fellow about the kipawa.net forum and fishing in general on Kipawa,he introduced himself as Captain Guy de la Poisson.It was certainly a pleasure meeting him.Our thoughts and prayers.

OMG life is short. Here I am peed off at the Leafs. And another good man leaves us for the great gig in the sky. God bless him, he was loved and honored here. My thoughts go out to all of us and his family. Lets all enjoy the time we have left. Life is to short for strife. Tight lines bro. I'll be thinking of you.

Thanks everyone, every trip to Kipawa I get to make in the future I will bring my memories of "Capt. Guy with me.

Oarin, very sorry to hear this news.  Reading of your adventures with Captain Guy over the years has been a highlight when visiting the Kipawa web sites. He always said that you were "The best net man east of the Mississippi." God must have felt that he is able to land his own fish now. He, his family and friends will be in my prayers.  Take care.

Such sad news..I never met him, but I can't help thinking Kipawa will be just a little less magical.  Peace be on him as he begins that next great adventure we all look to...

So sorry to hear about Mark,  what a shock.   It was a pleasure to have met him and fish next to both of you Guys. Cherish all of the wonderful memories of your fishing trips together.   Mike and I are both thinking about you and his family and just wanted to let you know that you are all in our thoughts and prayers.
