Jimmy, Oh wow, my deepest sympathies and prayers go out to you and Dick's wife and family... That's a terrible thing to happen, but as you said he was able to enjoy the company of good friends and good fishing of the Philmont and Rayado his last days... Thank God Dr. Corwin was there and to get Dick home as he wished... Again, my deepest sympathies and prayers go out to you, Dick's wife and family...
