We lived next door to each other in North East. We might not have had a lot in common but we always watched out for each other when one of us was away. We always had a respect for each other hunting and we would talk every once in awhile like neighbors do. He was probably one of the best neighbors you would want to have. I will miss you neighbor for sure.
