Chuy Loc: OUT OF TOWN
 
This is my life long friend Ken, he is also a fellow Hog member. I would like to share with you a amazing day I spent with Ken a few years back, Ken had just received his new Nikon D600, and we were more than eager to give it a try. We decided to give Panther Mountain a go even though the weather was not the greatest, The photo that you see here is Ken after we reached the top holding his new Nikon. I had no sooner taken his picture when cresting the tree behind him was incredibly enough, a Bald Eagle. I yelled Bald Eagle, knowing the bird had to be behind him, Ken swung the camera around and caught this catch of a lifetime as the Eagle looked back at him. It is with deep sorrow to report that Ken has recently passed away. I will miss him more than I can Say, In a perfect world we should have at least one day such as this to share with your best friend. RIP KEN

I'm sorry for your loss. It is far better though that Ken was in your life and you shared friendship and mutual interests for a season. RIP Ken
