I found his obituary on New Comers Albany https://www.newcomeralbany.com/Obituary/164446/Robert-Henry-III/Albany-New-York in case someone would like to view it or post a shared memory. It has a fishing theme with a picture of him with a big salmon which seems appropriate. I recognize the picture as it was the one he used on Myfishfinder. His contributions to both myfishfinder and iceshanty will certainly be missed.

RIP Rat. Going to miss the great info and the throw back pictures. Might sound corny but maybe his user name can be retired out of respect for a great fisherman. Tight Lines

masoneddie · « **Reply #49 on:** Jan 22, 2019, 03:11 PM »

RIP Rat...you surely will be missed. Will think of you everytime I hit those small lakes up in Partridge Run.

JJ · « **Reply #50 on:** Jan 22, 2019, 03:16 PM »

Gone but surely not forgotten around here, what a wealth of knowledge and he was willing to share it. Farewell Rat.

Not at all corny.
While I did not know him personally, it was like we all knew him and enjoyed his company. Always positive and surely one of the good people to grace this planet .
Fish on brother

lowaccord66 · « **Reply #52 on:** Jan 22, 2019, 05:22 PM »

I agree not corny at all. Can someone post a link to any one of his posts in here? I'd like to go back and read some.

jperch · « **Reply #59 on:** Jan 22, 2019, 08:51 PM »

I always made a point to read Rat's posts whenever I saw them. His absolute enthusiasm for fishing was an inspiration to me and I am sure for many others. I enjoyed his understated sense of humor. He always was happy to share the knowledge that he had acquired, a great example for all of us. I hope his family is aware of how much he is appreciated by our community. RIP and calm waters Rat.
