Sorry for your loss.

I don't miss my dad (in the conventional sense) because he is with me whenever I go fishing. He taught me the joy of fishing, the art of patience and the gaol of persistence when we fished.

Now I try to do the same with every rookie I encounter that looks like they need a "nudge" in the right direction.

I get as much joy teaching others as I would if I were catching the fish myself, and for that I think of and thank my dad every time!

As it has been said, and will be said again and again : After they are gone all you will have is your memories. Fortunately the more memories you have of that person, the more they will remain a part of your life and you will never ever forget them.

God Bless!

I am a legend in my own mind!
