I've not said anything to this point because I didn't know what to say. I think the group has said the best words. I feel real bad for you. I'm sorry for your loss.


Is there a funeral? Where?

Stumpy: "Bless you all !
I cried again, as I read through all the comments.
You are all wonderful.
It's been two weeks now & my heart is absolutely broken.
I'm alone now and open to canoe with others, but mind you, I'm a stubborn old jerk.
But I'm open to the idea...... canvas & Aluminum ;)
special thanks to Magic Paddler & Howard Sprague, & (nctry ?) or who ever bought the flowers ?



Again.... thank you all.... you all made me cry.... and that's good
LOVE "



I can be lured out of Retirement :)

So sorry Stumpy... I can’t imagine there are words a person can say that would bring any comfort. But just know there are plenty of fellow paddlers that will have you in our prayers and such. Your wife was a lucky gal to have such a caring husband. Hang in there...

It was tumblehome, Stumpy. ( HERE ) He initiated sending flowers and some others contributed. I missed out on it as I didn't see the post in a timely manner.
Wish I lived closer to the BWCA. I'd paddle with ya. You may be stubborn and set in your ways but you are not a jerk. Not according to what I've read through the years on this forum. I also may have detected a veiled sense of humor, too. :)


Hope fortune sends you many paddling partners in years that lay ahead. God keep you blessed.

Stumpy,
May she RIP and condolences sent to you. Her memory will always be able to bring tears to your eyes - But - the memories will lead to smiles as it validates what you both had for each other. It was unique and special and that will help sustain you to smile again when she visits you in your thoughts.
