Hi Gang!
I'm sure you're aware that Denny Conrad passed away last week. Dennywas one
heck of a nice guy. I met him at Sow Bug and later invited himto spend a week
with me at Philmont Scout Ranch fishing for rainbowtrout in the Rayado, my
favorite little river. Denny was my guest andall his expenses were waived
because I put him on the Philmont FishingCommittee. All Denny had to do was
pay his way to and from his home inWashington. He took the bus. I picked him
up at 4:00 a.m. at theRaton, NM at an all night restaurant. Ugh!
Denny wasn't aware of my ultimate purpose in getting him to Philmont,but Jeff
Hines was. You see, Denny lost his Eagle Scoout badge back in1941 but never
said too much about it. Anyway Jeff let me know and Isuggested we get another
Eagle and re-present it during the week atPhilmont. Jeff, who lives in
Carrollton, TX and I got with NationalBSA and they checked it out and all was
kosher, so they sent the EagleBadge to me. I presented it to Denny at the
opening banquet of theFishing Invitational. Blew Denny totally away. It was a
very movingexperience for all of us, Denny was spechless.
Yours in Scouting,
JIMMY D
