I was fishing with various guides in the Bahamas in the last week and, as we looked at the endlessly beautiful water, we all reminisced about Dee. And when I came in at night, I had the joy of hanging out with his son. Great company to all, great dad, part of his memory is in every cast (good and bad) I´ll ever take. He will be long remembered.

So sorry to hear of the loss of Dee Hawes. I always enjoyed my conversations with him at the bridges club upon his return from St. Louis. I am glad I was able to develop a relationship with him over the years he was a member. My condolences to the Hawes family, Dee was a great man.

So sorry to hear of Dee's sudden passing. I knew Dee and Kelly from visits to Charlevoix, MI. A fine couple and family that is now in grief. Dee was a good guy with a smile on his face that showed contentment, and I'm sorry that it is now just a memory. My sincere condolences and deepest sympathies to the entire family at this time.

I enjoyed every moment with that fine man. He loved his family above everything but God and always spoke so highly of you all. He was a world class fly fisherman and human being. Greatly loved and greatly missed.

I really didn't see Dick much after graduation, as I left St. Louis. But there were only four of us who went to the "Topeka Relays" prior to our appearance at the MO State Track meet in '71...Condolences to the family....
