Tim Renken Passed

[dave potts]

Saw an obit in the St Louis Post this morning with a picture of a guy holding a large bass.  Turned out it was the obit of Tim Renken, the former outdoor editor of the St Louis Post.  The guy led a very interesting life.  Apparently the Post sent him and his family on a lot of trips such as one month trips to several of the National Parks to do stories on them.  He was 83 years old.  I remember meeting him one morning at MTL as we were both launching our boats.
