Oh, thats so hard on the family. I've always told my wife if I die in the swamp, know that I died doing what I love. My condolences to the family and friend of this fellow hunter.

Sad to say, but here's hoping it was natural causes and not foul play that did him in.

Always sad to hear that someone has died in the bush, but, at least they were doing what they loved.

My condolences to the family and friends of the ancaster hunter. Something happened on the 406 near Thorold yesterday. Two opp officers were in the bush hope its not the same thing.

Any more details available? Natural causes are still sad but it beats the hell out of cancer.

I did know him and his family. I dated one of his daughters back in high school and knew him through the hunting community.

LockDown you are right, he did pass due to an aneurysm. It is a very sad time for the family and the close friends. My condolences go out to everyone that knew him in one way or another.

Thank you to all who have kept his family in their prayers.

This is a link to what was in the spec I believe.

How very sad - he was still young!

My condolences to the family.

BTW, neat to see the tribute to OFAH and DU in the memorial.
