    Unhappy I am termenal have 2 to 6 week

    I seems my cananser has gotten th better of me so I am doing a few things on my buctlist, I well shily miss this web sight and the people who spend time here, One of the thing I wanted to do might not sem impressable to othre but it yo fish home water I grewup on but never had the op to float, this water is the wallawalla river form lowden washington to the bridge at toughet gardena road. It my not seem like blue water wate to some of you if you have nver fished it, I have seen 20 lbs steelhead hooked and landed out of this water and it is just about peak time for this river, It is buetiful little desart rivr with salmon an small mouth bas you dont know what kind of mixed bag you could end up with and for a last fish I could think of any ware else I would want to spend it, we plan on putting in at south lowoden bridge to start the float on th morning of the 23 or 24 well I JUST wanted to say my goo byes this site has been fun and intertaning I have lerned a lot I hope I have past on some thing I have learnd, I do wish I could have met mor of you in person and I am sorry it didnt happen just rememeber I there is something you wanted to do dont wait time like for me has a thing about running out before we get them dune

    I hope you have a great day on the water and good time with friends and family in the days to follow.
    I can think of few acts more selfish than refusing a vaccination.

    Ray you will be missed It saddens me to no end and what to me seems worst is that i am speechless. I hope you come into the chat some more before you head off to the rivers in the sky. You are a great wonderful person who will be missed, I pray that god will look down on you and see the impact you have had on so many in this world. and spare you such a time frame and allow you many years to come. I pray that maybe it was a fluke ( yes i am an optimist. ) and the time giving is wrong. you will be missed. greatly and held dearly. hugs to you and your family.

    Ray, you are now and will continue to be in my prayers. I remember how much you helped me when I got serious cramps at the 2004 Central Washington Fish-In. I look forward to tying up with you in Paradise. God Speed my friend.

    Ray I am very very sorry to hear of this, 2-6 weeks is not alot of time to get a life time of Family and You time in, be assured that you will be remembered as one of the good guys.

    I know that you will be "up There" guarding the streams for the rest of us, and hanging out until we can join you!
