SFR Old Trails Fire Update

Sorta fishing-related
Thanks, my wife and I were in Billings talking care of my mother and my son and grandkids grabbed some rods, waders, etc. For me what I don’t have is mostly replaceable but my wife’s broken heart is my main concern right now.

Man…I’m so sorry. My mom lives in that same neighborhood you do…somehow her home survived. The pictures she has shared with me are awful.
 
Thanks Ben, I believe we have a mutual acquaintance, Scott, Dave’s best friend and Dave was someone I fished with regularly.
I remember that, you reaching out when he passed. Joe, Daves nephew, inherited Daves house from him, which Dave had inherited from his mother, my great grandmother. It was boxed in on 3 sides to within half a mile but made it through.

If there's anything a rizzuto can do for you in this time, I can reach out to Davies brothers.

I just don't have the words, all I can say is I am so sorry for your loss. Wishing you all the luck moving forward.
 
Extremely sorry about your devastating loss Dean. Our house up near Indian Trail was spared by sheer chance. The area looks like a war zone. So many lives completely upended.
I definitely thought about you and your safety after I heard that it crossed the highway and went up the hill.

You and your family were, and continue to be, in my thoughts as well.

While I know flyfishing will be the last thing on your mind for a long time, I've quite a bit of spare gear should the need occur.

Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help.
 
I have to wonder if the guy that caused this will ever feel any remorse?
Doubtful. I've read that true sociopaths are completely incapable of empathy.

He just needs to be locked up for life, which is quite likely under WA state criteria for Class A felony arson of this magnitude.
