Brian and I were talking this morning about the good times fishing with Harry :) I know they went out many times before I came into the picture, but Harry and Dot welcomed me into the "summer fishing family" without so much as a second thought! Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you as you go through this difficult time. Keep all of the wonderful memories in your hearts!

I have been trying to figure out how to post this sad news. To many thoughts to sort it out so I'll just say that on Thursday afternoon, my step dad, Harold "Harry" Gall, passed away unexpectedly. When I meet him, I was 30 something and he was 50 something. We didn't have so much of a father/son thing, but more like best friends. He was a hell of man, a man's man! We shared some of the greatest times of our lives. Ironically, after 20 years of health battles, he went very peacefully and quickly, in no distress. God Bless you Harry, I'm know you are in your heaven where the seas are calm, the fish are bittin' and everything is in perfect order...........
