Yep, remember him well. Our conversations, his informative posts and his very
kind attitude toward newbies was a tribute to his character. Sorry to hear he
passed. Since my heart attack (thanks for the dietary advice Bob, LOL) I have
not been as active on the EVDL as in the past; been too busy doing my thing. I
have often wondered how many of the "old guard" have passed un-lamented. RIP
Roland.
"Do what you can, with what you have, where you are" - Theodore Roosevelt “We
reached the old wolf in time to watch a fierce green fire dying in her eyes
.... I was young then, and full of trigger-itch; I thought that because fewer
wolves meant more deer, that no wolves would mean hunters’ paradise. But after
seeing the green fire die, I sensed that neither the wolf nor the mountain
agreed with such a view.” - Aldo Leopold

Roland always answered newbie questions that he had probably answered
many times before.
Rest in peace Roland.
