My favorite Uncle Terry came up again last week.
He brought up some good stories and A family gift: My Great Uncle Hal Waugh, Alaska's 1st Master Guide, shot a record book brown bear circa 1948. He gave one of the bear's canine's to his dad, my grandfather. Grandad gave this to my favorite Uncle, Terry. Terry had a hunting partner and jeweler, make the bezel etc. He wore this for years. Recently, he gave it to me. It has My grandfather and uncle initials on it. I never met Hal Waugh, but his book and the book written about him, inspired me from a young age.
