I am saddened to announce that one of our dear members Luvztaphish passed away today on his way to the pan-fish series this morning.

The IFO site has lost a dear member and will be deeply missed. Our prayers from IFO goes out to his friends and family.

Tom was a a die hard ice fisherman and came to almost every Alum dock tournament from the Akron area with Nate and Roger since we started them.

Tom was a super guy and was willing to help the IFO site and IFO events anytime help was needed.

Nate will post more info on the funeral ASAP.

We will all miss you Tom! RIP!

David

Only got to fish with Tom a handful of times, but it was always a good time laughing at Nate, Roger, and Tom give each other a hard time, and his post always made me laugh. He was a good man, and will be missed. RIP my friend RIP.
