Jimmy , I was truly moved by your story. My best friend and hunting buddy is deaf . He came to my school when we were in junior high and every one made fun of him and called him retarded. I was a football player and the capt. of the team. I had a class with him and soon became friends. I talked him into playing football and he started getting a little respect. I have enjoyed his company for many years since, both in the woods and out. i was the one blessed to have a friend like him. I dont know you and have never spoke with you on here but I would feel it an honor if you would count me among those you call friend. please feel free to contact me at
