The Obituary of Rev 300, Rev Doyle Israel, of Michigan and a member of this site was listed today in our local media. Apparently this gentleman and supporter of crossbows has lost his battle with cancer. Our sympathy is extended to his entire family and to all of his friends.

It's sad to read this. Rev was a wonderful person. He will be missed.
It's not the kill, but the hunt, where memories are made.

I hate to hear this, I was asking another member recently if they had talked to him. He had been sick for a long time.

Is very sad to hear but he is with the Lord now and no more pain. Does anyone know if there's a web address for condolences?

Though he has gone on to his reward, Rev 300 will certainly be missed. I recall when he first found he had cancer he was very worried for his wife. We'll have to keep her in our prayers along with the rest of the family.

I hope it is appropriate that I pass his wife's words on to this board.

I appreciate the information, I've been praying for him for awhile. I will miss him and I know he hasn't been on here for awhile but when he was we talked quite a bit. I was on the original Rev's team for the hunting contest a few years back. Praying now for the family.
