I received word today that my cousin's husband passed on late last month...Arch was a wonderful friend & family member and a true Alaskan in every sense of the word.  While the news of his passing saddens us, I find it fitting that he left doing something that he truly enjoyed doing.  In a sense, he made it to the other side of that river and now relates all those hunting & trapping tales with other friends & family who are waiting there with a warm fire, a cup of coffee & a smile.  It's been a pleasure, Arch...
