Today we must pass a bit of very sad news. Ricky Gray passed away last night.
Ricky had just started working at the Restigouche River lodge towards the end of 2017 season and was with us for 2018. Ricky was a great addition to the lodge team, easy going, delightful with the guests and quite a guide. The partners, staff and our guests will sure miss him, but we will not forget Ricky. I have included this photo of Ricky, his fisherman Joe Stepanittis, a regular RRL guest from The Pa. gang. Sadly Joe also passed away late last year. Well those Pa. boys had a plan already. They are in the process of framing this photo, the fly that hooked the fat salmon and some nice words. This remembrance will always hang in the RRL camp.
If Atlantic salmon Rivers are in heaven, you just know these two guys are on the water.
With our deepest sympathy to family and friends.
