Paul Trybul Posted February 12, 2022 Report Share Posted February 12, 2022 I didn't see anyone mention this, but Gregg Stockey passed away last fall. For several years he was an active member, a regional coordinator, and part of the Sylvania crew. Here is an article about his passing from a boat accident on Lake Geneva.. https://www.journal-topics.com/articles/former-bridge-director-dies-in-boating-accident/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kev-mo Posted February 13, 2022 Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 Knew the name but not the man. Sounds like he was one of the good ones. Tragic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Trybul Posted February 13, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2022 I'm not sure who knew this but Gregg published a book. It was called Guests At The Buck Falls Club which he gave me a signed copy of. It's an entertaining read that made me laugh a few times. I laughed with him not at him per his instructions. It gives you some insight into his life, outdoor adventures and misadventures. There is even a chapter on the Sylvania Crew which gives mention of several ISA members, me included. I know we have had some members pass over the years. Gregg would be the first I know of that died while out smallmouth fishing. Gregg was a good man that did a lot to help troubled youth. I enjoyed the time I spent fishing with him and he will be missed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ed Buric Posted February 15, 2022 Report Share Posted February 15, 2022 It was Gregg that showed me the ropes at Sylvania. He truly was one of the good guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim J Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 Very sorry to hear and yes, Greg was a great guy and a lot of help at shows, former officer, etc. Since it’s been a while, I thought he would have something in the bulletin by now.

Sorry, but this was news to me also just a few days ago. It is in the March edition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Clifford Posted March 1, 2022 Report Share Posted March 1, 2022 We are connected on Facebook, but I never learned of his passing until I read it here. A boating accident. Enjoyed our time spent at various events over the years. He will be missed by many. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
