Last night, we received the sad news that my father-in-law, Butter, at the age of 95 finally passed away.  The last few years were tough on the man. 
I taught me how to catch walleyes on Lake Sturgeon and for that I was very grateful.
He will be missed by many.
RIP Butter.

Tough to lose friends like that. My sympathies to you Tom and to the family.

Never easy to lose anybody but it always seems worse when it's over the Holidays.

Amen to that. Half the men in my family didn't make it out of their late 60's early 70's. 
God blessed your father-in-law well.  :happy1:

Hey, GT. It’s apparent in the picture that he was a lot of fun to be with. Think of the good times, and know that we all get through the bad ones somehow. Best wishes and I hope your family is able to enjoy the memories and get through the holidays. I’m sure that’s what he would want.
