My friend George Smith publicly announced that he had been diagnosed with ALS early this year. When he told me in late last summer, I was shocked and saddened. I can't imagine the Maine outdoors without George in it. The following is my article from the April issue of the Northwoods Sporting Journal . Love him or hate him, you can’t deny that George Smith has spent the majority of his life being dedicated to the Maine outdoors and the sportsmen and women who enjoy it as well. He is passionate about hunting, fishing, hiking and everything outdoors related, sometimes to a fault but, no matter how you feel about him, I am sure that some aspect of the outdoors that you enjoy has George somehow tied to it. I don’t need to write about George’s accolades or his writing, time at SAM or legislative work because I am sure you know of them. What I will write about it how George has helped me get my writing ‘out there’ through his own connections and reputation. Thanks to Georg
