| OT Folks, I need you to do something for me. Remember Kirk in your prayers this morning. (UPDATED with more information on where and how to reach out.)

You know who I'm talking about...Kirk, one of the founders of this site.

A tragic accident has taken one of his children. God rest his soul.

I need you guys to do what you do...whether it be thoughts, prayers, or more.

@Kirk Van de Graaff love ya, man.

 

[Rolltide24]

Aww man, this is awful to wake up to. He was just talking about his kids the other day. Can’t imagine what he’s going through. I’ll be praying for him regularly. Be strong brother.

I am so sorry to hear this. My family and I send our deepest thoughts.

Me and my son fishing. I got 28 years with him, for that I am eternally grateful. 1 day can change your life. I appreciate you all for theses posts. Never a pain like losing a son.

I would never want to know...I don't have any kids, as you know, and this hits me to the core. I only know him, through you. And knowing you, he would be a fun guy to get some fishin' line wet.

@Kirk Van de Graaff there a road here that runs through the Navy base, over the reservoir, that separates the fresh from salt water. It's brackish...but a GREAT place to catch large mouth bass with shrimp. That picture reminds me of that area...

Where were you guys? What were you fishing for?

I am so so sorry to hear this... as a father of 3 sons, I can't even imagine losing one of them, so I know you must really be going through a tough time. My prayers and condolences....
