A leave of absence. - chrome_junky - 01-06-2013 I'm going to be off the site for awhile my best friend, the man who is solely responsible for placing a fly rod in my hands at the age of 5.( my grandfather) passed away yesterday morning and I had to make an emergency trip down to Idaho falls to take care of his funeral and estate. I am planning on being back to Lewiston on the 13th. I should be able to be functional by then. Until then the other mods are going to have to keep the Idaho board battoned down. Until my return best regards. Chrome_junky [signature] Re: [chrome_junky] A leave of absence. - flygoddess - 01-06-2013 Heart felt sympathy for you loss Chrome. [signature] Re: [chrome_junky] A leave of absence. - Kodiak1 - 01-06-2013 So sorry about your grandfather. He obviously was a great teacher/motivator, in that he left you a legacy of fishing that has stood the test of time. Can't adequately fill your moderator shoes, but will sure try!

Amazing what you can learn about a great person's life when they pass. Hope you find peace in his passing. One positive about a death is how it can bring the living together. Share the remembrances. Peace and prayers to you and yours. Godspeed.
