NICKWORN · 09-18-2018, 06:41 PM

Sorry to hear about your loss, tough to hear one of our brothers has lost his life in this tragedy!!

I shared a FB post with the gofundme with our east coast brothers-South Florida Kayak Fishing Club as they had heard of the news and wanted to be updated! It just goes to show the brotherhood involved in this passion we all share!

Rest in Paradise David!!

Please try SDKF there is a GoFundMe, please support if you can. Thank you.

I am at a loss for what to say that may bring any comfort. We are a close family that transcends demographics to pursue our passion. What affects one of us hits us all to varying degrees, regardless of whether we were personally close

As previously said, let us know if there is anything that we can do. A paddle out?

Someone please post the link to the gofundme here. I tried searching for SDKF and did not come up with anything.

Paddle on, brother.

Apologies for your loss. Unfortunately Dave and I haven't met but it would've been cool to have another regular on my fishing buddy list. He sounds like a genuine guy. I'm sorry If I wasn't able to help Dave as much as I could have that day, the location of his incident prevented me from thinking anything serious was going on and I was stunned when I came in contact with him and the rescuers. The lifeguards had mentioned they were taking his kayak and gear to the Scripps yard... where ever that is but I wanted to let you know in case they weren't able to.

Deepest sympathies to Dave's family and friends, I cannot imagine the pain you are experiencing... to the kayak fisherman who responded to this tragedy, much respect.
