Mel Krieger passed away today
Folks,
As many of you know, Mel has been very ill the past 4 months suffering from a rare form of brain lymphoma. He passed away early this morning.
My condolences go out to Fanny, and the rest of Mel's family.
I would like to add that Mel's 'family' is most certainly much much larger than his kin. It also encompasses the very many around the world who have benefited from his enthusiasm which permeated all his teachings on the subject of fly casting. In word, in stills, in video footage, in clinics and in personal contact.
I will miss his infectious wide grin, and the twinkle in his eyes, under his very 'Mel Krieger' ratty old hat.
Regards,
Hans W
