Enjoyed rabbit hunting with Charles and Bob Hardy a while back. He could walk us "into the ground". The last time I hunted with them, there was a lot of sleet on the ground. They made the statement that "there's no rabbits around here, let's go." About that time I stepped on one, I reached down, picked it up and said, "There's plenty of rabbits here, just reach down and pick one up." This has been an amusing, but true story to tell and I will always remember him when I tell this story.
My grandpa, mentor, best friend. Shine down on us. Hug Nanny and Momma for me
Such a wonderful father in law to me for almost 30 years. Now able to be with his wonderful wife Lo and beautiful daughter Donna. You will be so missed by us all
Sorry for the loss
