Hey Lil' buddy...Sure do miss your PRESENCE ...Thanks for being my friend,mentor and my buddy. You were such a great teacher and shared so much with me. Its still hard to believe you've parted from this place and headed on. I know there was more for us to do but guess it will just have to wait for awhile. 4/29/07 We just had a yard sale here in Lebanon, Dick came out in Oct. and he set up with us-who would believe that...But we all had a great time, he sold fishing lures,vcr tapes and got to tell fishing stories all day. He put on his salesman hat and went to work. This year I did the same and I'm NO salesman but it worked...sold tons of stuff. Thanks Dick, he would have been proud of me. Below are a few of his paperweights-he had over 1300 at one time.
Richard E. Holiner - 6 Months ago you left this ole' earth to hang out with another pretty good fisherman. I know its greater than we could have ever imagined. Boy oh boy do I miss having you around. I put the hammer down this weekend during the yard sale-knowing what you would have been saying---"sell it"...
3/5/08 Will it was over a year ago and my thoughts slip back to my buddy Dick often, things he would say or do. We had such fun discussing the world-I sure miss that still....
