Malcom coming from a Dad that lost his son and hunting buddy at 20 this was a gut punch reading this.You summed up alot of the same emotions i had when I went hunting for first time without my son Craig.People say it too lightly but i mean it when I say I will be praying for your family.Have always enjoyed your writing and this puts a more personal connection having experienced a loss so bad you can't put in words.Bless you all.
Although we don’t personally know the boys or your family, we are very sorry for your loss and will continue to keep all of your family in our prayers. The good ole boys out doing what they love minding their own business and to have had this tragic event happen is horrible. DFW needs to get these lions under control. Did I read somewhere about a fundraiser?
Thank you, Tom--main problem regarding management is the ballot-biology nonsense which allows a popular vote from an uninformed and otherwise unaffected urban populace to hamstring actual biology-based management, with all the unintended consequences. Before DFW can resume their historic management imperative, the law itself now has to be reversed. It's an unwieldy and time-consuming project, but this craziness is a motivator. In the meantime, we have a donation fund established through the El Dorado County Community Foundation--here's a link: https://bit.ly/BrooksBrothersSupportFund
There's also a spaghetti-feed fundraiser toward the end of the month at the Placerville Elks' Lodge--https://www.facebook.com/search/top?q=placerville%20elks%20lodge%20no%201712
I'm so sorry to hear this! I know you will continue to hold and honor them, and this is part of who you are now. You are doing hard but good work. We all send you love.
Thank you, my fine friend...tragic and bizarre as this whole situation is, the outpouring of love and support has been nothing short of amazing, and we're all grateful!
Thank you for the update I have been thinking about all of you. It’s great to hear that he is continuing to do what he loves and what and amazing way to remember his hero
Thank you, Erika...it's pretty amazing to watch Wyatt's resilience, definitely, especially in this era in which petty grievances and largely neurotic "traumas" seem to dominate the entire culture...
Also--there are apparently some fraudulent online donation ploys out there, so be aware. The medical and funeral costs of this are unknown, and there is an official, tax-deductible contribution fund established through the El Dorado County Community Foundation. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. This is the correct link: https://bit.ly/BrooksBrothersSupportFund

I'm so truly sorry for family's loss. Thank you for sharing how they honor him still. My heart goes out to you all.
Thank you, Hugh. It was a tough one to write, but honor them I will.
And you did honor them. I feel grateful to have read about both these young men, and the words you gave us to understand and see things more clearly.
