The fondest memory of my dad occurred in my senior year of high school. Dad was a rice farmer and tried to do everything himself. He loved to hunt and fish, but never had the time. However, that summer, he got on a deer lease with a long time friend. He and I went hunting Thanksgiving. He told everyone that he didn't care if he got a deer, but he wanted me to get one. I had never seen a live deer before, except in the zoo. We left after lunch on Thanksgiving day and got to the lease after dark. The next morning, they dropped me off near a stand, but I missed it in the dark, so I sat down under a tree. Twenty minutes later, an eleven point buck walked out in front of me. I carried him out to the road and sat down across the road waiting to be picked up. A very few minutes later, three bucks loped across the clearing about 180 yards away. I dropped the last one, an eight pointer. Dad was so proud, he nearly popped the buttons off of his shirt. I treasured that time together, as it was as much man to man as it was father to son. Two weeks later, he died of a heart attack. I have always thanked God for allowing us that time together. C.L.
