REMEMBERING MY FISHING PARTNER

He was my service dog and my fishing partner!

I want to take this moment to share the best moment in my life as well as my worst! I rescued Charlie nine years ago and I saw his potential and his work ethic. I needed help with my health issues so I had Charlie trained and then certified to be my service dog. I am still so proud of what he accomplished. There wasn't a time that I would be on the boat without him. We both loved fishing but loved more just being together. November of 2023, I lost him unexpectedly to a ruptured spleen tumor, I had no signs and no warning. Within fifteen minutes he died in my arms but he did give me one final smile and kiss good-bye. I fell into depression and at times wanted to die. My friends, my family, and my faith got me through the worst times. Each day is a struggle and each day I look for him and miss him. When I see a rainbow, I see him, I know he's up there. I wish he was still here but I'm so blessed to have had him in my life.

SPECIAL THANKS

I would like to personally thank Dr. Daniel Sheldon and Dr. David Berkower and their staff in South Florida for their added support in keeping me mobile and my mind and body synced. Without them, I wouldn't be able to keep fishing. I need to give a special thank you to Jack & Earl from TUSCARORAN lures for being my first sponsor and for their constant support & guidance. Although we lost Jack, I know he watches down on me. I also need to thank Pastor Wayne Godwin for his teaching of scripture and keeping me grounded, he touches more hearts than he will ever know and for my fellowship at First Baptist Church of Lorida for always knowing what to say and when to say it. Finally, I need to give a special thank you to my friends & family for their support & encouragement in helping me chase my dream & goals.

my mentor & friend. He's missed everyday!

PRODUCT SPOTLIGHT

I don't usually recommend a product! But this one is worth it!

I usually don't recommend a product because even though I had a positive experience, you may not and I do not want to discourage anyone or let you down. If you're looking for a roof sealer or waterproofing product, you need to check out ALL WHITE. You can click on their logo and there's a link to their site. The crew at ALL WHITE will ask questions to make sure you're getting the product you need and they don't upsell you. They will walk you through the process of applying R400 and as long as you follow their instructions you will be more than satisfied with the outcome. ALL WHITE may not be the cheapest on the market but as the saying goes, you get what you pay for. Now, you can get similar products from the orange or blue box stores for a cheaper cost. But why settle for something that's just "ALRIGHT" when you can get the best with ALL WHITE.
