My deepest condolences to the Fehring family and Justin. Many fond memories of growing up in Hillsboro, Ohio and especially the last 30 years we were connected up again in California sharing many great trips to the mountains, fishing, camping, and backpacking. Countless concerts, fairs, festivals and sharing fun times with our mutual friends. Road trips in California and the big New England vacation in 2001. His advice on many of life's issues will be missed but always remembered. Rest in Peace my adventurer friend
