European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - January 16, 1993, Darmstadt, Hesse Model Hunters deserve respect r dear Ann Landers this is in response to the poem about the Hunter who Felt so remorseful after shooting a Bird that he threw his gun into the Bay. In a sorry he so deeply affected by his experience but to Tike to relate a Story about a Friend of mine who Hunts for a different reason. A a bobs lives in Meadville pa., near a Farmer who grows soy Beans. The Goose population has reached such enormous proportions that the Birds completely strip the Fields on a regular basis. A special season is open just for a geese and Bob Hunts during that time to help the Farmers keep the numbers Down to a manageable level. Bob is a Vietnam Veteran. He a has a Job in an Auto repair shop and because of a leg injury he does no to move around As fast As most 42-Ycar old men. He has a wife and two children and they live in a modest Mobile Home near the Woods. Bob also Hunts during Deer season and whenever he brings Home a Deer his family is thankful because the meat feeds them All Winter. He also has the Deer hide tanned and makes wallets and slippers for his kids As Christmas gifts. Bob is a conservationist and he be Ann Landers lives safety is the no. 1 concern when Hunting. No one in his Hunting group drinks or litters and they All have Hunting licenses. In my opinion Bob is a Model _ Man and he like others of his kind should hot be made sports to feel guilty because they shoot Birds.

We lost our youngest daughter. Although this couple sent a sympathy card some 10 months later they visited us and not one word even mentioned about the tragedy a not one word mind you. No hugs of concern about our grief not even a a a we re has dear Abby it just like it never happened quibble Mem Uirt Ftp to it you think Hoti the och amp to then last year my husband diagnosed with prostate cancer and underwent 39 radiation treatments.
