I have great respect and admiration for what you are doing. The experiences these kids and vets are having because of your efforts will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
I lost fourteen-year old fishin' buddy five years ago to a tragic accident -- toughest thing I have ever had to deal with. I realized then that while death might take him away from me it could not take away all the memories we made while fishing together. When I fish now it is usually with a "boat load of kids" and I believe we are making memories that will be with them long after I am gone. I hope that some day many years from now they will be fishing with their kids and telling them about the fun times they had fishing with their grandpa on Utah Lake. This is important to me.
Again, great job you are doing. I'm sure the "rewards" you see every day make it all worthwhile.
