Gary "Pop's" Kellar RIP
« on: March 22, 2009, 09:18:00 AM »
Gary "Pop's" Kellar
May 3, 1947-March 22, 2009

Pop's died peacefully in his sleep after a lengthy battle with cancer. He was a friend to all Tradgangers who ever crossed his path. He'll be sorely missed by all who knew him. Rest in peace Pop's!


If anyone has a pic or two please post them. Thanks, CK

Curtis,

You and you family have my deepest condolences. I still laugh a little when I remember that night Charlie, you, Gary and I spent bowfishing. He was a good man. Spending those few hours on the boat with him was something I won't soon forget.

Dang Curtis!!

When I saw the thread this past week, I just knew what had happened.  I remember being with you the day you found out cancer was upon him.

Your dad will be missed in our little community of trad bowhunters.

Curtis, you and your family will be in our prayers.  I have heard lots of great stories about Pop's although I never met him.  I know he had many great friends on this site and will be sorely missed by many!!

Pops will be missed by many and that is evidence of a life well spent.  I would like to convey my sympathies and condolences to the Kellar family even though I always feel at a loss for the right words at these times.  I lost my father several years ago, very suddenly, and even though I had just seen him two weeks before I felt cheated out of saying goodbye and seems as though there is unfinished business there still.   Keep your goodbyes current with anyone you care about.  Curtis, I am glad you had some time to come to grips with Pop's imminent passing to prepare for this day.

Regards,  John Berger

Curtis,

As stated earlier, my heart and prayers are with you and your family. Sorry for your loss. As I said I lost mine in 1981. Still miss him.
