... what it's all about ...
Paul,
First, a big thanks to you and your family, followed by bravos to Andy, Sammons and all who stepped up to realize this tribute.
That sponsors came to you - rather than the other way around - speaks reams about our community. While at times seeming "fractured," it was absolutely wonderful to see/feel/experience our coming together for such a good cause.
The weather proved impeccable, and large fish willing (including, yes, our own celebrity hammerhead - one to never miss a good photo op). Everything combined to make it a truly special day.
As hoped/wanted, I got to meet up with old friends - most with less hair (or greying beards), but all with smiles and good old-fashioned man hugs.
It was a good day Paul. A wonderful remembrance, and absolutely fine thing for all-involved.
Avery
