Sad to hear. He had family up this way in Salem. Quiet, soft spoken guy. Delivered my kayak to my house I had bought from him, new. along with a rod I had him build for kayak fishing. Wish I knew what that blank was... It was still my go to live bait rod last I fished two summers ago... I tried to look him up maybe a year or so ago to figure out what that rod was. Think he built them on either a muskie or salmon blank....
