In May 2018, I ran into this guy at an Annual Memorial Day Horse Auction and took a few photos of him.
He approached me and asked if it were possible for him to get copies.
I learned that he was a big fisherman; so, I fixed this for him, framed it, and gave it to him at the 4th of July Horse Auction; he was tickled to death.
He carried it around all day and showed it to everyone; I would see him pointing me out and telling people "That guy fixed this for me."
Sadly, I saw that he had died in 2022.
An only child, never married, his father was killed in 1969 when a tractor turned over on him and his mother died in 1988; she was 38-yr-old when he was born.
His mother had three sisters who all died in childhood.
He did have several cousins on his father's side.

That's a lovely storyboard for his family to remember him by.
