Thread: Make a wish

Once again TC, you DO where others talk. These are simple things that we can do for people that mean so much to them.

Years ago, I took the man out that I bought my first boat from. It was a 12' V bottom with a 9.5 Evinrude on it. He also had Parkinsons at an advanced stage. I took that man out several times in basically his own boat after I bought it from him. I was a young buck of 26 at the time and his wife never had to worry about him when he was with me. Once he wanted to go deer hunting one last time. That's a story in itself I'll save for another time.

God bless you and him both.

Wow TC!!! That is an awesome story. I am so glad you guys had a great morning. I wish I would have visited longer.

Odie

Mighty good thing you did Ledge!

Awesome story man

Great post, Ledge. Jerkey Log told me you are a great person. My 92-year-old mother-in-law, Doris, thought that she would never get to fish again. We got to take her to a mountain lake in Montana, and set her up with some garden hackle. She caught more than enough brook trout for her favorite breakfast and had a great time.
My 88-year-old Dad is in a wheelchair and on oxygen at one of the best nursing homes ever. They took him and several other residents out to the Madison River, where they caught some very nice fish. When we go to Montana every year, the best parts of our trips are taking Doris and Dad for trips to the mountains or the Lake for stories, hot dogs and S'mores.

TC you are the man! What a story! You are truly a great person, keep up the great work!

Great job getting the old timer out for some catching! What a day for the three of you. Now he will have some new fish stories to tell.

The story doesn't surprise me, TC would give you the shirt off his back. Really a humble, selfless guy. He's went out of his way for me several times too.
