tjhunt2 Report post Posted February 20, 2015 Let me start by saying how grateful I am that Amanda started this awesome site. If it wasn't for cwt Peg and I wouldn't have had the pleasure of meeting so many awesome new friends. All your thoughts and prayers that has gotten Peg and I thru the recovery of my quad accident, just before Christmas, to the passing of my dad 3 weeks ago, we thank each and everyone of you for all your friendship and support. You can't imagine what it has meant to us during this time. The Women's Javelina Hunt was just the break I needed to set aside, for a little while, the emotional roller coaster I have been on. I personally want to thank Ilene (aka lucky2hunt) and Roger for their hospitality in letting us stay in their toy hauler and for all the rest of you attending this event. Most of you might not have known but all your laughter, story telling, and sharing of your enthusiasm for this camp was just the medicine I needed. Thank you all! Dad was a strong man and his last words to me was" I'm sorry I can't go hunting with you any more son and thanks for all you have done for me. I love you!" I think that was suppose to have been my line. Well, here are a few of our last memories that has been etched in my memory bank. The last picture was of his 85th Birthday Dec. 17th. His last camp fire which was to the left of this picture. 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

naturegirl Report post Posted February 21, 2015 TJ & Peg - I'm very sorry for your loss. You are fortunate your dad was also your best hunting partner. I've met you and seen how you mentor people. I'm positive your dad's skills he taught you carry on in the people you have influenced in the hunting world. Christina 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
