Posted June 5, 2023 I am sad to report one of our own, FishnDude has passed away. He passed sometime last week and was found in his condo Friday. Apparently of a heart attack. He was great friend and benefactor to many. His services have not been determined at this time and will probably be at a later date. 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted June 6, 2023 (edited) It’s an unfortunate consequence of our ‘secret lives’ that our passings often go unnoticed by this group of friends. Edited June 6, 2023 by Bit Banger 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 6, 2023 I would agree with @BigBaldBlk. FishnDude helped many people get through some hard times. He was kind, and generous. He would do nearly anything to help the ladies here. He will be missed 🖤 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 7, 2023 Ahhhh man. He was a cool hombre! I meet him twice at public events. I really enjoyed talking to him. Easy to talk to. He was straight forward and a no bullshit kind of guy, honest and genuine. It sucked when he stopped participating here on TOB. I really like hearing what he had to say. God speed FishnDude! Hats off to you and may there be unlimited trophy catches where you travel!!!!!! 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted June 25, 2023 Just saw this. I'm sorry to hear the news. I never had the pleasure to meet him in person, but I always enjoyed to read what he had to say about this, that or the other. I for one will miss his wisdom on here and his "view of the world" I really appreciated him for his take on life and his thoughts on living. Damn it, RIP to my, and our thoughtful friend. You will be missed. My deepest condolences to his family. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
