Dear Scott

So sorry to hear of your loss, however I am so glad you harvested your trophy in honor of you dad. When I was a kid my father would take us hunting with him and if it was a Sunday and there was a church close by he would take us there. I too lost my dad suddently while I was in the military oversees. I recall him saying one time that he took us to a hunters mass one year before a morning hunt and the priest's sermon was concerning fathers and their sons companionship in the outdoors. The priest said " A father who hunts with his son today will not have to hunt for his tommorrow" I will always remember those words and my father's companionship.

Vaya Con Dios my friend. Your dad was your best compadre.

Scott--- Deepest sympathies from myself, Kelly and the boys...I now that your Dad would have wanted you too stay and finish your hunt and know you have a lifelong harvest that has added to the many memories of your father...

Take care my friend,

Mark and Family...

Scott, Moms and Dads are never far away; they will always be there when you need them. It was nice to share a camp with both of you.

Scott:

The loss of a parent is a hard thing. Mine are both gone and I miss them deeply to this day. It sure sounds like you did what your Dad would have wanted you to do. When I am in the woods or following the bird dogs I know my Dad is there. Sometimes, I swear I can feel him. Its neat. Don't be afraid to talk to him.

My deepest sympathy.

I wear my Dad's ring, every Spring, and we go Rockfishin'together...wore it to my daughter's wedding two weeks ago, too

Scott,
I am very sorry for your loss. It was a beautiful story, and it sounds to me like you did what you needed to do. As everyone else has said, you did what your father would have wanted you to.

Good luck and God bless. You will be in my prayers.

Brad
