I am also having a very hard time of it, very shocked and saddened by the news.
I have many, many, many (pillows?) memories of paddling and travelling with my buddy Freddie over the years. From the Saint to the Wolf to the Ocoee and Tellico and beyond. Our 2003 trip to the DR, with Freddie as tour guide, is one of the highlights of my life, I saw so many places and things that I would never have experienced on my own (and at least a couple that I wouldn’t have wanted to !?!). I can’t begin to count the number of Southeast trips where Freddie kept everyone in stitches, on the river and off. So many stories… Really hard to put much into words right now…
I guess we kind of lost touch over the last few years, but it was always good to know you were out there tearing up the Yaque del Norte. Glad I at least got to talk to you a couple times in the last few months, but I wish we had gotten the chance to make one last “No Eddy” run down the Saint together, bottle of rum (or maybe a diet Dr. Zhivago?) waiting at the take-out. Voy a extrañarte, hermano. I’ll miss ya, buddy!

And here is a slightly less “busy” version of jw’s second link above…

Exact same data, just displayed in cumulative rather than incremental format.

Ay, ‘mano, you are correct… Probably more stories from a couple handfuls of Tellico trips than from all those countless Ocoee trips combined! All great memories, on and off the river… Mikey and the Royal Leprechaun. Team Throw S#!t. BOB (aka Bounce Off Boulder). Turtletown (?!?) Even that one involving me and a swarm of angry bees. Many more… We all got stories on yuzz, too! Sure we will cross paths again for more paddling adventures, hopefully sooner rather than later!
