Red Bullets
Hello Everyone on this forum!
This is Red Bullet's Daughter. A good friend of my dad's told me that he posted regularly on this site, and shared so much of his knowledge with all of you.
It is with a heavy heart that I have to tell you that he is now in hospice, and being kept comfortable until he passes away.
Thank you all for being such a special part of his life and allowing him to be himself on here. He loved nothing more than hunting, fishing and the outdoors and getting to find his "people" on here truly made his life so much more rich.
I wish you all the best, and if you're the praying type, please say a little prayer for him.
Take Care everyone, and never forget to truly live your lives while you're able to.

He will be in my thoughts and prayers. Not the news that anyone wants to hear, and don’t wish it on any family, but cherish what ever time you have left with him and the memories you have made with. God Bless.

Not much a guy can say here… Eugene is a great contributor around here, always with positivity, great story, and advice. Always gave an impression of a great man who lived to the fullest.
It surely is sad news to hear… i am sure thoughts of many here will be with him.

Talked to Red lots over the years, sometimes on a thread, sometimes by PM. All the best to him & his family & friends, and to you with extra stress & responsibilities at this time.

Sad to hear this... I too have had many conversations with Eugene. I have a piece of mammoth tusk on my shelf from him and I will always remember him when I look at it and show people.
He touched many lives. May he always be in your hearts and my warmest thoughts go out to him and all of you!

I don't think there's anything bad to say about Eugene. His stories show that he lived an adventurous life. He shared so many interesting historical facts and stories.
Your father is missed here. Our thoughts and prayers are with him.
Godspeed Red Bullets.

We chatted a couple times, very sad to hear. He was a wealth of knowledge and passed on so many interesting facts about the history of this beautiful province. Prayers to you and your family, enjoy hunting up there Eugene.

Your father is truly one of those guys who brings the history of the past to many of us through his posts, his knowledge and he brings wisdom and interest to all of us.
It is sad to hear he may be reaching his time soon, as we all will, but know that he will leave his words here for generations to come.
All the best to your father and your family.

Your dad and I had a few guitar discussions a while back and I enjoyed them very much. Saddened to hear he's taken a turn for the worse. Real nice man.
