I am so sad to see Dustin is no longer around. Looks like he died when we were down with our third case of COVID, which explains why I missed this until now. Prayers for the family.
When Dustin and his brother were kids, I coached his brother in flag football and baseball. We took them fishing with us and two of our boys. I had teased them by saying if we didn't catch anything, we couldn't eat. Nearly lunch time, Dustin was getting rather frantic about everyone else having caught fish, but not him. I told him not to worry, he'd catch one soon. It didn't take him long to explain that he didn't think he'd be able to eat because he didn't catch anything yet. That nearly broke my heart! I'd never meant for him to think HE had to catch fish if he wanted to eat. I quickly opened the ice chest and showed him that nobody was going to be hungry. I had hot dogs just in case it was a no-catch day. I never saw anyone so relieved! He was a good kid. I'm really glad to see his picture with a fish in his hand.
