I’m not too big on sharing this type of thing, especially on my hunting page but I feel like this is deserved… ESPECIALLY on my hunting page but. Kevin was partially responsible for me going hog hunting for the first time, I caught my first live deer with him. Dazey, the dog that’s on our logo came from him, so did Dixie. He is the reason (lent me the cash I didn’t have on hand) I bought Axel. Went c**n hunting my first (and last) time with him. I had many, many good times with him and honestly I’ve grieved this friendship already partially but he will certainly be missed. I don’t think I’ve ever met another soul that was universally liked quite like Kevin (and never ran into many people that he didn’t like as well. Best storyteller I’ve ever met. Eternally grateful for his friendship!
