THANK YOU EVERY BODY ON THE FORUM - 06/30/13 05:24 AM

Going to Cedar Creek in the morning with Okiebob and doing some fishing with my son it is a blessing to have some nice people out there. I just want to tell all of you THANK YOU and I really appreciate the help and back bone that youll is doing for my son thru his hard times. God is good and may he bless every one. It is hard for us to deal with this but it will be a good time the next couple days and he said he will take every one up on there offer on some fishing. He said he do not want no one feeling sorry for him just to be a fishing partner. And don't want no one to feel like he using this because of his condition to go fishing. Yes it is tight at the same time he dont want to feel like he can't. he said I might get tired but I will keep pushing. And it makes me feel bad at the same time because I cant give him the simple things he ask for but you'll have made the simple things easy. And I am so glad he is simple minded like me and love the nature and the world not the material things. Will keep every one posted and THANK YOU AGAIN.

Thanks Okiebob we enjoyed are selves and had a blast. My son said you and your buddies are hilarious and could not stop laughing. He is still talking about the fish that he lost. He hooked into a striper and spooled him and he is so happy to have feeled the thump. I think he is going to become a thump aholic now. Thank you all who shared this day with us and made it a blessing. Will post pics soon.

OkieBob is generous to a fault, and a great gesture no doubt, but I think us old guys enjoyed the day as much as anyone. From the First Light Coffee & Breakfast, throughout the encounters on the lake, to the loading of the boat. After leaving you guys, we met Bob in town for Lunch, and he was as giddy as a School Girl about the day. He was thrilled about the expression on Nino's face when he got spooled by the Hybrid. What a Great Day.

You have a great family, and glad ya'll let me and my brother be a part of it. Jig'um showed up at Breakfast with a hand full of Jig'um Jigs for Nino to use during the day. A bunch of Ole Geeshers showing up to have a good time with your family, and the BLESSING was ours. As usual when trying to help someone else out, you end up being blessed as much as those you are hoping to help.

Wish the fishing was better, but with God, he seems to know what is needed, and everyone gets what they need. Thank you for the day with your family.

Re: THANK YOU EVERY BODY ON THE FORUM - 07/01/13 10:45 AM

Thank you all for the kind words but, I'm a little embarrassed, humbled and a lot blessed by it all. Yesterday was one I'll remember forever. All I did was what any of you would have done and was blessed by being a small part of helping Nino, Tory and Betty forget, if just a few hours, the terrible ordeal they face in the days ahead.
Nino is an exceptional young man and I ask that everyone please pray for him as he starts chemo this Friday. I pray that WE were able help him in some small way prepare for whatever lies ahead.
My good friends, Matthew, Bruce and Keith were more to thank than me. I'm sure it meant as much to Nino, the laughter and banter between us all as the fishing. But, the smile on his face was the big payoff for me. He caught the biggest fish of the day and one I'll never forget. I just truly appreciate his whole family for allowing me to be a part of their day. They are special people that I was honored to become friends with.

Please keep them in your prayers! Nothing else will get them through this terrible time. My family has been so blessed and I can't even begin to know how hard this has to be for them. I just ask they keep us updated on how he is doing. May our God be with you.

Nothing better for the heart, mind, and soul, than giving Okiebob. Well done. Bet Nino would wear one of the OU caps....through his coming ordeal.

WOW... I've said it before, and I'll say it again, the TFF has allowed people from totally different walks of life, who's paths may never have crossed otherwise to become lifelong FRIENDS. Gestures like this should trump every petty little gripe any of us have about the content of this forum. May God bless each and every one of you.

Thank you Nino, Remy and Okiebob. Your actions; reaching out and asking for help, the courage and kindness to share your struggle, the ability and willingness to respond. All have far reaching impact.

I have close friend who does "real work" in helping families through these types difficulties. From what little I've learned through him and from those like you sharing your story with others my faith in God is renewed and my trust in the possibilities of goodness in men is restored.

I'll be praying and am grateful to you as well.
