Thanks Peter, thanks board members.
Today, a very special day, also weekend that was given to us called Family Day weekend. We took a very special moment to remember a dear friend and family member who loved to fish the bay day in, day out, weekend in, weekend out. And this is where he wanted to be. Board member Greenie.
He is now in a great place ;D

For years, the riverbank was where
Your soul felt most at peace
Your heart was most content when there
With the fish and the geese
But then, your spirit came to rest
Where angels chose to roam
And once equipped with ten pound test
You made yourself at home.
The sky became your deep blue sea
The clouds became your shore
And there, for all eternity
You sat with friends galore
Each angel was a fisherman
Who had traded his pole
For golden wings and a game plan
At Heaven's Fishing Hole.
The tales you told about each catch
Its stature and its girth
Will live in memories unmatched
As days pass here on earth
Until we meet again, one day
Upon God's golden sand
We'll picture you, no other way
Than with a pole in hand.
Rest In Peace Greenie

Very Sorry, and condolences to this mans Family. I hope someone will take my ashes and leave them in some water. Those that fish are happy by the water, when we are tired we love the sound of waves. When we fish with our friends we are at ease. When we are alone near the water we reflect and clear our hearts and minds. A most peaceful place for those that love the water.
Rest in Peace
