I wanted to let Campfire members know of the passing of " ShoMeWhitetails" Bill Singleton. Bill had walking pneumonia, was recovering, so he thought. He got up and went deer hunting two mornings in a row. On the second morning, he came home went to bed, was feeling tired. Bill never woke up.

We are diminished.....

He set me up with some .25-06 dies & bullets this past February. A true gentleman & a class act.

Condolences to his family from Ohio. I'm raising a glass to him even as I type.

I'm sorry to hear that. I thought the name sounded familiar so I checked my message history.

I sold Bill a Leupold scope about 2 years ago and there was a problem with USPS losing his Money Order. It finally showed up a month later post dated when he sent it. Everything worked out and he could not have been a more understanding and complete gentleman about the whole issue.

We have lost a good man and fellow hunter. My condolences to his family and friends.

Wanted to share a short story..

Just a few weeks ago I sold Bill a barrel. We wandered on price a bit. I caved but told him he had to do one thing. He had to buy the person behind him a coffee the next morning at the store. He happily agreed.

He pm'd me a few days later to let me know how much fun he was having every morning doing the coffee thing. He said he so looked forward to buying that surprise cup of coffee for people. The look of shock and happy on their faces. People telling him "You just made my day!"... He was so happy to see what a dollar was doing for these people and the simple act of kindness.

So, after finding out he has passed so suddenly I ask all of you guys to do this...

Next time you walk in the store buy the person behind you a cup of coffee. Tell em' a friend said it really works....

Thanks

W

Thoughts and prayers.


Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

Happily Trapped In the Past (Thanks, Joe)

Great story and great idea. I'm gonna give that a whirl.

Condolences to Bill's family and friends left behind.
