I arrived at the lease on Saturday Nov. 8. On Sunday Shelly called me to tell me a close friend of mine , Louis Valis, had passed away. I returned home to be with family and attend the funeral.
I had helped introduce Louis to archery a few years ago. He had a natural talent for shooting and quickly became a top contender in tournament shooting. Thus the nickname “X”. Louis was a TBH'er and went by LVANDEV (Louis-Valis-and-Eric-Valis[Eric is his son]). He really enjoyed TBH and threads on here were often main topics of discussion when we were together.
Louis was a God fearing, family man with high integrity and an unselfish nature seldom found in others.
Upon returning to the lease, this buck passed within 15 yards and I was fortunate to place a shaft through both shoulders and watched him fall.
This one’s for you, X
Rest In Peace, Brother
