I didn't know Elwood personally but somehow I feel deeply saddened like I lost a good friend. I used to read his posts, some fishing and others related to his health issues and surgeries. He did not post for a good while and I assumed/hoped he was doing better and on the road to recovery. Unfortunately, the recent posts about him made me realize that he was still battling old health issues but I sure did not expect to hear of his passing. Perhaps it was his honesty or straight forward character he displayed in his posts or maybe the mountain of pain and agony that he went through that touched me the most, I don't know. All I know is that I too feel a void for this person I did not know. So my friend, Elwood, thank you for enhancing my life, your memory will live on. My thoughts are with your family that endured your pain with you and will long long after you.
