Glen, I am so sorry for your loss. I'm praying for you and your family. If you ever need anything or wanna talk, I am just a phone call away.

So sorry for your loss, Glen.

The relationship that I've seen between you and your parents says it all. You will speak of him often and miss him always. I too lost my dad much too soon (59 years) but the relationship lives inside of me as it will in you. Teach the grandkids like he taught you and enjoy the legacy as it lives on. My sincere condolences to you and your family.

My condolences man

So Sorry to hear about your fathers passing. Really enjoyed seeing you guys from time to time on Lake Lavon.

I am so sorry for your loss, prayers for you and the family. May his legacy live forever through your memories.

I'm so sorry for your loss sir! Seems like a great man is an understatement! God bless you and your family.

Thank you all for the wonderful replies.

He is missed dearly every day.

My Dad and the rest of the Family appreciate the TFF Family for being there for us and allowing the sharing of our fishing adventures over the last decade. It has been an honor.

Here are a few more pictures.








God Bless!

I crossed the Tawakoni bridge yesterday and thought of your Dad and how he loved to fish there.

As a veteran myself I always appreciated the "fly boys".. or zoomies we called them.,.,. back in desert storm... we were staging at a port warehouse when scud missles started coming in, one hit a warehouse and killed several soldiers right next to us. .. A short time later, we saw a couple what we think were F15 Eagles take off with afterburners lighting up the sky. hauling [censored] and breaking the sound barrier.. it was an amazing sight seeing them hammer down, right above the water . . I asked my platoon sgt what was going on and he said, we have triangulated exactly where that scud missle was shot from and they are going to hammer them.
. Most of the times they would shoot the scuds from trucks and then try to hide, but it didnt work. Thier first missle launch was thier last missle launch,.,

Hogon, is that a citizen navihawk blue angels watch your wearing? I have one getting reconditioned that im waiting to get back.
