"after all this time has passed"

I still miss not being able to send a PM to Al Campbell with a question I have on tying....:(

Jack and I are in Rapid City. I told him on the way in that I would love to be setting down with him this evening and picking his brain...I still miss him also

I've never met him, but I hear he was a very nice man. He is with us now, as a part of our spiritual lives, that's why we fondly recall him.

Al Campbell was my mentor on fly tying with his Beginning Fly Tying Series (20 articles)...


I spent 3 days with Al Campbell at the FAOL Black Hills Fish-In...


Al Campbell was my mentor for my first hand build fly rod with his Graphite Rod Building Series (13 articles)...

The last time I saw Al Campbell was at the the September FAOL Fish-In...

I was shocked to learn that Al Campbell was dying...

I helped raise over $600 for the Al Cambell Memorial Bench by offering FAOL Fly Patten CDs to members of FAOL...

I also continue to miss Al Campbell, it was only after his death that I learn that Al was 5 years young then me....

But I will always consider Al Campbell, as my "Senior"...

I never got to know Al, I joined here too late, however I have read his tying threads on here and yes I miss him also. A Great fly tyer and a Greater Person. He paid it forward in the best sense of the word, ;he passed his knowledge on so others might learn years from now. Thanks again Al. Y'all take care, John.
