My father in law "Stub" finally passed away this morning after a two year long battle with cancer. They gave him that name when he was a kid because he was such a little guy and he actually preferred it over his given name of Eugene. Can't say I blame him for that.
He was an impressively tough little guy who shot a pretty accurate bow, played a mean guitar, And taught me how to pan for gold.
He developed and sold the High-Banker gold sluices and I spent several weekends with him going to gatherings around Oregon.
He shot his last elk with a bow while sitting in a tangle of logs with his oxygen mask and nebulizer at hand.
I had only known him for a very short fifteen years.

RIP.

Sorry for your loss. Sounds like a great guy

Glad you knew him. My condolences. Sounds like he was glad to have you along for the ride and your tribute says a lot for you both.

RIP "Stub"!

Sounds like Stubb played his hand well. God's peace.

RIP Stubb.

And, condolences to the family.

I understand your pain. We lost my father in law about three weeks ago and we miss him terribly. It is obvious that we both won big in the father in law department. Stubb was clearly a pretty neat guy. Prayers to you and your family from N.C.

Rest easy Stubb. I hope I can have a few folks wish the same for me someday.

RIP
Prayers for your family.

Thanks for sharing Stub with us. A good man gone...
