I just wanted to reach out and let all of his internet buddies know that my father in law- Soup(Gary) passed away yesterday after a 15 month battle with cancer. He always read and posted on here every morning. He made a lot of new friends through this site over the many years of being on here. He was a truly genius man who loved the ocean and it’s surroundings. He will be missed! Tight lines and calm waters he has for sure now.
I’m sorry 
My sympathies to your family.

Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn’t go so far as to call a dog filthy but they’re definitely dirty. But, a dog’s got personality. Personality goes a long way.

I’m sorry to hear we lost him…I wish we had tried to get him offshore one more time…Yeah he will be missed here.
