My BIL passed away late last night in his home after a 3 year battle with the most insidious form of cancer (pancreatic.) He’s the one person I’d never guess would contract anything, he llived an extremely healthy lifestyle. My wife Betsy and I were down at their home in
Lancaster since Monday and just recently got home. Some of you may remember my posts of some family outings on the local waters, my sister Sandy and their grandson Ryan would travel up here quite frequently, we’d fish and grab lunch or dinner at a pizza/ Italian restaurant and simply just enjoy each other’s company. He was my BIL but also a great friend, and I am proud and honored to have been called his friend as well. He is most deserving of some sort of tribute.
Think I’ll have to do some fishing tomorrow to sort things out.

Brad, you have my condolences and deepest sympathy for the suffering and passing of your BIL. Prayers will be said tonight for the family in their time of need for comforting of the soul and mind.

By all means go catch one or two tomorrow, and let healing begin.

Thank you Fred, I’ll probably be talking to him aloud while fishing tomorrow. Hopefully no one’s around lest they throw me in the loony bin.

All a man has at the end of his life is his legacy — the impression he left on others. Your words are sobering and a testimony to his legacy.

I am sorry for your loss. I do hate to confess my ignorance--but what does BIL stand for. I am sure we in the south, have a name or initials for the same.
