I had season Tix to the Blazers during his time with the team. He was an avid fisherman and a very nice guy. I worked with kids in trouble. He used to come into the detention facility I work at and talked with the kids. Even got permission to take a couple fishing one time. One time right before their finals with the Bulls he and Terry Porter showed up and hung out with the kids for a while. I wasn't working that day but my friend asked them why they were out driving around and not getting ready for the games. I guess they said the coach told them to go clear their heads. They went for a drive and ended up there, it was a 2 hour drive each way.
I was really shocked at his passing.
BTW- yes, he owned a Duckworth boat. Nice boats, little out of my price range.
