Heartfelt Condolences To Fatboy

[jig-jig THUMP]

Friends,
With sorrow I am forwarding word about Kevin W.'s (Fatboy) recent loss of his brother Kyle, age 36, on Tuesday 12/9 from heart complications.  To hear Kevin talk of his brother and how much they enjoyed each other's company, some being outdoors-based, should serve to remind us all of the blessings we all have in family and friends.  Don't take it for granted, enjoy those moments together.

Keep the faith my friend.  You had something special, the memories of which will warm your heart forever.

I look forward to seeing you somewhere on the ice this season.

Kevin,

I am very sorry to learn of your brothers' passing. I always enjoyed his sense humor, as exhibited in his avatar selections. :^)

There are folks you meet online you know you like even though you've never seen them face to face. Kevin and Kyle are two of them. I'm really sad to hear the news. Kevin, I'll be sure to keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.

Sorry that I haven't replied sooner, but thanks much guys for the kind words.  Iceshanty is something special, allowing us to bring friendship to each other through the internet and common interests.  Some of us meet and fish together and some don't, but I value the friendships of all types just as much as if I had known you all personally.  In my case, if I had the time, then I would make it a point to fish with each and every one of you as much as I could.  I still have that goal, but the time is the issue

As you can imagine, this has been a tough holiday season and new year for my family.  In addition, so far it's put a damper on my ice fishing season (along with not much ice).  There is so much to do for something like this that is unforeseen.

condolences to you and your family
