We suddenly lost a good family friend, and a good fishing buddy yesterday, Jimmy Youngs. Youngsy, as many of his buddies called him, lived on the northwest side of Chicago and had a place in Hayward where he did a lot of muskie fishing over the years. He always had a great story to tell, and always with a good touch of humor. He will be greatly missed, as he was one of the best.

Sorry to hear that, CJ. I've been bumming the last several days myself, a guy whose daughter my son used to date entered a confined space Sunday (sewer lift station) and expired.
Thoughts & prayers to you folks as you cope. m

I remember all of my friends who persue the mighty muskie every night in my prayers.
Tonight I'll be asking for some comfort for you, your friends family and all of those who will miss him.
You can find some peace just knowing that he's in a better place.
Sorry for your loss.

I am very sorry to hear of your loss, sir. :(   Beav said it very well, as usual. Ditto what Beav said.
