R.I.P. Torch , always had something interesting to say. Great that he followed his dreams and flew the wild Alaskan country.

That is very sad news.
I always liked to read his posts about his hunting and fishing trips.
God must have needed another angel who could bring his own wings.

I guess it goes with our saying that he will be missed around here.


I know this doesn't amount to much, but the CFOT will not be the same place with out him.

Here's to hoping that he's flying around in a much bigger nicer plane some where better than here.

/\ This, I loved reading most anything the guy posted....he had a neat life,.....

I tried to encourage my mountain loving/living son to go up there for a week or so, and Don would show him around....but he never went, AFAIK.....

but Don was willing, which says a LOT!!!!!
