“He was the guy I was most afraid of, but he turned out to be my protector,” I told Pat Durkin one night when I called him to reminisce about Tom Heberlein.
I just found out he passed away. I knew Tom and Pat were friends and hunting buddies. I had to talk. I didn’t know who else to call. Pat quoted me in his recent tribute to Tom. I thought the quote could utilize some explanation. He also gave me an opportunity to do my own tribute.
