Denis, member of S-B, good guy, passed this morning

Many of you will know Denis. Great guy, big smile and big laugh.

One of those guys that just fished and fished and fished, and laughed and laughed. If we could all be so good.

He caught a lots of fish, lots of different species, hunted lots of trails.

Denis passed this morning, Clammer just called me.

Send his family and friends some thoughts and prayers today.

I am beyond words. I knew Denis thru Clammer. Those 2 were inseparable. Clammer's partner for as long as I have known Mike.
My sincere condolences to Denis's family and to Mike who just lost his closest friend.

Mike, anything I can do, you know the number.

No boat, back in the suds.

really sad news at a tough time of year as well.
Condolences to Mike and Denis's family and friends.

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Denis was the consumate outdoorsman, enjoying hunting and fishing as often as possible. He loved catching fish on a fly, but was happy being on the water in most situations. My condolences to his wife Jeanne and daughter Allison. RIP. Denis.

cHRIS ,, I don,t know .. his wife asked me for photos of Denny fishing & I did .
His daughter is a surgeon & may have had to go back to Virginia , thankfully she got up here in time to be with her dad .
I know what his wishes were but sometimes something may be better for the family .

thanks for asking & all the P&T , I,ll be sure to tell his wife .
Next year has to be a better year ><>

ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!
