ain't that the truth .. it hits home in a big way ..someone you know who is your age who was doing something you love doing ..it is hard to grasp.

Saw on the news last night that this man's body was found while they were looking for another missing boater in Bristol, FL. Finally some closure for the family. Now we need to pray for the other missing boater. My prayers go out to the families.

GaJoey -- unfortunately they found him. See my thread. Didnt see yours when I posted the news just now.

It is a very unfourtanate that it happened at all. It is a sad thing but a good thing that they found him .I know several of his family members and this will not take away the pain but it will bring closure . I use to recovery dive with the Lee County dive team and I have seen first hand what it means to family members to have their loved ones recovered .. To the people who searched for John and have searched for others it is a great thing you are doing keep it up please..

Glad they found him. This is so sad! I started wearing my pfd again after this!
