  1. Rest in Peace, Mick,all those hunting trips in high school, and you the best shot of all. time and distance took me away from the northwest, but looking at your photos, and realizing you’re gone doesn’t leave me much of an excuse for not picking up the phone.
    I can hear your voice, see your smile, and am sad, but will catch up with you one day.
