In Loving Memory

Of

Michael H. Verduin

December 1, 1942 – September 9, 2003

 If you ever wanted a person to share a canoe with on a fishing trip,
 Mike would be the first one you would call ...to see if he could go!!!
 And if you had a special project that you needed help with

... Mike was always there to give that help and assistance.

 Mike had a wonderful talent and imagination with regard to the art of fly
 tying.  He was a cherished friend, who will always be remembered for his
giving and caring nature.  Those who knew him will always remember his
helping hand, whether it be tying, casting or fishing.   He spent many hours
teaching others and did so without regard for recognition or compensation.
His talent and imaginative tying skills were unique, as well as, beautiful.

Those who were lucky enough to have met and spent time with Mike will
always cherish those fond memories.  Michael Verduin will be deeply missed
by those who cared and loved him.
