I have so many wonderful and fun memories while talking with Chrissy and Roger “Mole” over the phone. Our long distance friendship that stood the test of mileage and time between us. Roger said I had an accent and I told him he had the accent. We laughed and laughed. Not even sure what the other said at times with Chrissy laughing and interpreting. So many shared fishing stories accompanied by incredible fish pictures caught from the NY Long Island waters by me, Maine, West Virginia and beautiful places in between by Roger and his lovely boys. We were looking forward to a shared vacation in Long Island NY with fishing, love, friendship and fun this summer but we all got sick. You will always be in our hearts and minds Roger. We know you are at peace and fishing away. We love you Chrissy, Christopher and Owen and will forever and always be here for you!
