My Dad asked me to post a request to this BB asking for your prayers. He goes by the name Oldman at this site. On Monday he had emergency surgery to remove a tumor. He should be home by next Tuesday and I’ll bet he’ll be back on line that same day. Don’t let his username fool you … he is an amazing man … in fact, his doctor has already praised his strength and very positive attitude.
Thank You for your support!

Edna,
Your dad & I have talked many times & we still look forward to fishing together there in New York. He has been such a good & generous friend to me…sharing knowledge, flies, & printed material. I will certainly keep him in my prayers & I will be talking to him as soon as he is able.

You’ve got 'em, Edna! Your Dad may not hae told you, but this board has a surprisingly good track record when it comes to such things.
You bet. He’s on the prayer list now. Good luck and God Bless.

From one “oldman” to another, you’re added to my prayer list also. A fighting spirit can really help too. Thank you Edna for letting us know.

There is a fine line between fly fishing, and standing in the water waving a stick.
Consider it done from Arkansas, too. Where two or more are gathered…
Mike
There is no greater fan of flyfishing than the worm.

Prayers sent, get healthy quick.
Dan
Prayers coming from Oregon. The list is just getting too long! Far too many friends are sick.
Happy Trails to you, him and the rest of the family!
Ronn
Arizona chimes in with the very best wishes too. Positive thinking is a great asset when combating illnesses. Tell him to keep it up!

May God bless your father. Hope he is able to do some fishing as part of his recovery.
