    Even though I hadn’t seen Robert for years
    I spoke of him often as I was fortunate to
    have met Robert when I was in my teens.
    We spent many of time fishing in Lac-Le June
    and the lakes around. Also memories hiking
    up and fishing in Tranquille. My memories of
    Robert were that he was a kind and gentle sole. I wish we had kept in touch.
    He will always be in my heart especially
    when a line is in the water.
