Expressing a bit of frustration here! You posted this item for sale last weekend, and I've gotten no response from you whatsoever since (???) Seems unfortunate since I'm pretty sure I found a buyer for you ...

Tony and I had been communicating back and forth the past few months. He drew a late rifle Unit 23 bull tag this year and knew his worsened physical condition was going to prevent him from getting out for that one last hunting trip. After our talking back and forth, Tony felt he had finally found the right organization for his tag in Heroes Rising Outdoors. He wanted to be sure that his tag would be going to an Arizona veteran who had been disabled due to an actual combat related injury. I assured him that we'd make that happen. It hit me to the core when Tony told me he doubted he'd be here when the time for the hunt arrived. I hated to hear those words, but prepared myself for what might be. For those of you in the younger generations, you really missed out on a special man who contributed greatly to the hunting fraternity through the years! Tony had accumulated a wealth of knowledge he shared through many decades of writing. He was direct in what he had to say, whose thoughts carried much merit. You definitely will be missed, Tony! We were fortunate you were an Arizonan ... Godspeed!

Not in the East Valley, but Pete's Transmissions in central Phoenix knows their stuff will treat you right! Worth making the trip (speaking from personal experience a few months ago) ...

Appreciate those who responded! Slight delay in tackling this, but on the short to-do list ...

Truck in question is a '98 Chevy 4x4 that has been maintained mechanically until this non-working A/C issue. Would be willing to try a DIY re-charge if anyone out there would be willing to help me go that route --- I am not a wrench monkey and due to my full HRO schedule honestly don't want to tackle this on my own at this late point. My phone #: (480)760-3868 if you have the inclination to help out the next couple days/eves, I'm flexible on time and can come to you with parts/refrigerant needed. Appreciate your checking out my thread, Lv2hnt (Tom Wagner)

I'm fortunate to drive a sponsored Heroes Rising Outdoors truck. Sometimes I need to use my personal vehicle when our HRO truck is needed to pull Az Elk Society's trailers to different events. My older Chevy 4x4 hasn't been driven much the past couple years. Just discovered the A/C isn't blowing cold. Hopefully it's an easy fix and not the compressor! Whose a reliable A/C guy in the East Valley (I'm on Gilbert/Chandler border)? Appreciate your speedy replies --- I'm scheduled to leave for a turkey hunt this Thursday ... (Fingers crossed) Thanks! --- Tom (Lv2hnt)

Don can fill your coolers with striper fillets, you can count on that. Ton of fun on top of that! Have a little patience getting your calendars meshed right now ...

Try Rusty's in Springerville (across the street from McDonald's). He's a veteran also, so it's cool to throw support his way ...

I talked with the prospective tag donor last night when I got back in town (individual is moving back to his home state and wants to see an Arizona disabled veteran get to hunt using his tag). Appreciate those of you who put my/our (Heroes Rising Outdoors) name out there!
