dancinfox 10 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 We had our annual Council Wood Badge Dinner last night. Had 38 members of C-03-04 receive their beads. Attendance was at 158 with 172 registered. The sad part was on Friday morning, a good friend of mine and the Troop Guide for the Eagle Patrol for last years course passed away. He had a heart attack two weeks prior. It was a happy and sad event. He would have wanted it to go on, yet all who knew him were sadded by his passing. The Eagle Patrol had a Eagle 2 feet tall carved out of a piece of wood to present to him. They did present it and I accepted it for his wife. Dancin Link to post Share on other sites
Eamonn 61 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 The passing of a friend is always hard. I would hope that when my time comes that my friends will remember the good times that we have shared and a Wood Badge dinner would be the ideal setting. I feel sure that your Eagle Patrol friend really has gone to the Happy Land. Eamonn. Link to post Share on other sites
orennoah 11 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Even though I'd never met or heard of your Troop Guide, as a Wood Badger, I share your loss. We all do. I'll raise a glass of bug juice in his honor. Yours in Scouting, - Oren "I used to be a Bear . . . ." WE3-41-03 QM WE3-41-05 Link to post Share on other sites
