Good evening Ray.
I was in to your store last Saturday – I always enjoy a visit to Hook, Line and Sinker. I always leave with what I wanted plus I have had an enjoyable social and educational visit with some fine people. The owner is a gentleman. In every sense of the word. Your multilayered knowledge and expertise regarding the enjoyment of fishing is truly remarkable. You are the finest example of a gentleman devoted to serving his customers and the community at large.
There was a gentleman operating your store that was even MORE helpful and inspirational than yourself! Imagine my disappointment when I arrived at Hook,Line and Sinker to find that you’re not there. The guy turns out to be your brother, which kinda made up for your absence. But only if he was able to be helpful and knowledgeable. Mostly helpful.
Ray. This fellow, your brother, Yuri. Great guy. What a gentleman. Even better than you as he shared many of his secret fishing spots with me. Yes sir that brother of yours is quite something.
Much merriment to you , see you soon.
