With a heavy heart...
« on: May 25, 2014, 08:05:19 PM »
I was notified earlier today that Bluesdude, Todd to those of us who knew him outside of Hunt-WA, lost his battle with pancreatic cancer this morning.

I just wanted to take a second to let other members know that knew him through the board. If you didn't know him, well you missed out on knowing a truly standup guy who had a passion for the outdoors. More so, he was a great husband, father, friend and colleague and would bend over backwards to help anyone out.

My thoughts and prayers go out to his family. He will be missed by many and I feel honored to say that Todd was my friend!

Never knew him... IMO The best way to pay Homage to a great man is to tell a story about him... Others can know him as you have and he can live on. RIP

Sorry for your loss, I've lost two really good friends to cancer, one at 23 and one at 30. Makes you want to live every day to its fullest! Hang in there  :tup:

Here is a picture of Todd with the bull he harvested last year. This turned out to be his last hunt. He was supposed to meet up with a group of us to go turkey hunting this spring, but the cancer got pretty bad and he never made it to turkey camp.

I chatted with Todd a few times in emails about cancer, sounded like a great guy. So sorry to hear this. Last I spoke with him he said his treatment was going well and he had his energy up. I am really sick of cancer, taking good people from this earth.

Prayers for Todd, his family and friends.
