Old Fishing Buddy has passed on

[wiperhunter2]

A good friend of mine and fishing buddy for the past 25 years passed on several weeks ago he was also a member of BFT and went by Fish Nutt I believe it was. His name was Tim Ward and was in his early 60s, Tim and I spent Super Bowl  Day this year fishing Glendale Res. in Idaho and had a cold morning fishing with the wind blowing hard from the West. Some of you may have had a chance to talk to Tim he was a quiet gentleman and very friendly. He's going to be missed by his fishing buddies,  God Bless you Tim.

That is  to hear Pete, he lived near me and just a few years ago I went over to his house and he showed me the lures he used to catch crappie trolling for them at PV. He will be missed for sure, Tim was great guy. If you don't mind me asking, what happened? Send me a PM, if you would rather not share it on the open forum.

Tim had liver problems but kept it pretty much to himself and I think it was a big surprise to all of us when He passed on. My youngest son worked with him at Parker Hannifin and called me on the lake when he passed on, made for a rough trip the rest of that morning. Tim and I started fishing together back in 1995 when I worked at Parker before leaving and hiring on at Hill.

Thanks for passing that info on Pete, I would have never have guess that was the cause of his death, I was thinking a car accident or something along these lines. He seemed healthy the last I saw him, I guess we never know.
