Prayers needed for Tommy @ Lake Fork Tackle Repair - 11/28/15 11:40 PM
I noticed on Lake Fork Tackle Repair they were going to be closed until March.
I contacted Connie to make sure everything was okay.
Tommy is going in Tuesday for triple bypass surgery.
The Kilpatrick are the reason I even started working on reels.
Our prays go out to Tommy & Connie

Prayers sent. Those two have helped many of us over the years. The first time I sent 4 or 5 reels to Connie she was still working on Quantums. She knew of a program they had and she sent my reels to the factory and they sent me new factory refurbished reels. She earned my deepest respect with that and they have been a great friend to many of us.

Yeah, he is going under pretty quick and for a triple bypass, I think. Prayers for Tommy, Connie and the whole family. Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.

Prayers to Tommy and Connie! I took one of their repair classes maybe 8 years ago and have been cleaning my own reels since then. I first met them at the Rally@Fork/Texas in the 90's. Good people!

I just underwent double by-pass heart surgery myself 3 weeks ago at the same hospital Tommy is going to, Baylor Heart Hospital. The BEST hospital and staff in TX. I have known Tommy and Connie for many years and they are just down-right fine folks. Will definitely be sending prayers.

Prayers sent for a successful surgery. It's amazing what those heart doctors can do nowadays.

I talked to Connie and Tommy is doing good.
He is sore and will need lots of rest.
