My heart is heavy with the passing of Roger "Tigerstripe" Clark. We last talked in mid-January and it was kind of a goodbye sort of conversation. I guess last year he went back up in the Rockies for a last fishing trip with his boys, so he told me.

Roger was a fella who truly immersed himself in the natural world. A pragmatic sort of hunter, who knew more about huntin' critters than most of us put together.

We fortunately haven't lost too many Cafer's over the years, tho' I'll sorely miss this fella. RIP, my good friend. May the pill you draw up there be #1 every morning...
