Terrible sad news.  Me and Dal used to joust a bit back in the early days of the LW.  Then on the Widow Wall and again here.  I never imagined from his initial descriptions of his health and the operation itself that this could be be the outcome.  I always figured he'd pull through and be back shooting again.

Cheers my friend.

Dal and I responded to one another a couple of times over the years. We had much in common. We were around the same age, shot the same bows, retired around the same time. I always respected what he had to say and always looked forward to hearing from him. He will be sadly missed. My heart goes out to his family and all that knew him.

Goodspeed to the happy hunting grounds Dal.....     Terry

Condolences. He looked like a happy hunter. I'm sure where he is the hunting is better.

Prayers for his friends and family.

So sorry for his family - may they all fully believe he is in a much better place now.

This was so sad to hear. I will miss Dal...one of the really good guys in trad community.
