[GH] Jim,
Great ! As you know, Craig has been an active member of our Group. He has always had a very special capacity for being able to think "outside the box". He never simply accepted conventional ways of looking at fly casting without first questioning them. His inquiring mind undoubtedly went a long way toward his passing.
You and I have had the pleasure of teaching and casting with him in past years.
I know that you were one of his primary mentors.
He also gained a great deal of experience working at Joan Wulff's school.
I'll be with Joan, tomorrow at the IGFA "Legends" meeting .... she'll be as pleased as we are with this news.
Craig not only attended our Master Prep courses at conclaves, but took an active part in these. Many of his responses made us all think.
Gordy
