losing a good friend
 

I have been absent from posting on this forum for awhile, but would like to make the North Shore fishermen aware of a good friend and fellow MBBA member who is now in a hospice living out his last days. He is not an old man, but has been knocked down with a horrible case of cancer. Rick Brown has been fishing Plum Island Reserve from a sand vehicle for many years. He has always been willing to help out with conservation projects and go-fish days for the families who introduced their kids to fishing. He is now fighting for comfort and please keep Rick in your thoughts and prayers.

Sad news Don.....sorry to hear that.Hope your friend Rick is at peace soon.

Prayers for you, Rick. Thoughts for you, Don, as you share this journey with your friend.

T's & P's for Rick, family, and friends.

Don, I'm sorry about your friend :(
I hope he finds comfort and peace soon

This is a rough one Don, the man is too young.. I don't know Rich well, but the few times I've met him he seemed like a real genuine kind of guy. May he find peace... and heartfelt thoughts to his wife Nance (plumcrazy) and all of you on the north shore that fished with him.

Our heartfelt thoughts & prayers out to Rick (and Nancy!)

Sorry to hear the news. Ts and Ps sent.

Sorry to hear about your friend and fellow MBBA member Don. Thoughts and prayers to him and his family and friends.

Rick and his wife Nancy took me under there wing when I first started over sand fishing from my Red ford ranger way back when, The drive and dedication that Rick has for this sport, access and conservation is 2nd to none. I was truly taken back when I heard of this news and pray for his last days on earth to be full of memories of Plum Island sun rises and steller days catching fish one after an other for hours

Thanks for posting this Don

Rick passed away today, RIP Rick

Thoughts and Prayers go out to Nancy and the Rest of Rick's family.


If anybody doesn't know, Nancy is Plum Crazy on the board here..

Rick passed at 0630 this morning Nancy was with him. Details to follow

So sorry to hear this Nancy.

Words don't come at the moment, we just offer the comfort & hope we can
