Farewell, Stan-O

I just got word that the fishing community lost a dear friend last week. On Sept. 17, Stan Brown of Federal Way, WA (shown here hamming it up in Alaska) passed away at the entirely too young age of 64.

I met and got to know Stan (AKA “The Admiral”) when I guided in Alaska for Alaska King Salmon Adventures on the Nushagak River, where he was the all-around Big Enchilada.

He was truly one of the greatest guys I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and I’m honored to have known him.

Stan-O, hope those fish in Heaven are biting! We’ll miss you!
