Not sure what to say?

Miss Troy a lot! Milton died Sept 23 of 2021. Hope they are fishing and kayaking together again. Full sails and high tides, dear loves!

Troy was a very good friend. I always enjoyed fishing with him and just spending time. I will miss him very much. I was always amazed at his knowledge about such a wide range of subjects.

Our brothers in PACK will miss a good man.

Sunkel was a man of distinct character and fortitude, with a dedication to commitment - and a Big Heart. In knowing Sunkel, you had a best friend who you could always count on; forever reliable and always glad to help with whatever was needed - whether it be mechanical, electrical, nautical, or culinary. He was a “do-er” and an achiever; a man of many talents, who could overcome any physical obstacle, even if he had to re-engineer, or re-invent it.

Sunkel was a great story-teller,...

I am very sorry for your loss. I live a few condos over think it was so sweet how he went out to feed the raccoons every night.
