The sea is a mysterious thing. Just recently my son-in-law and two friends were salmon fishing out of Bodega Bay in Calif. They were going out every week for awhile. On this one day a "freak wave" or "rogue wave" took them by surprise and flipped the boat. Only one man survived and my son-in-law was never found.
The one man that lived said it happened so fast he thought he tripped and fell overboard. When he looked around the boat was upside down. Lucky he was found alive. Another was found dead and my son-in-law was never seen again. My daughter is here on Maui now for the Holidays trying to cope with it all. Prayers are welcome.

Our deepest condolences on the loss of your son-in-law, especially in such a sudden and tragic manner. May the Lord grant His peace to you and your daughter.

Wish your daughter God Speed from us. Was you son-in-law from the North Coast? I think I told you we lost our friend Billy Law and three others on opening day of crab season a few years ago when the boat loaded with crab pots was swamped by a large wave in the entrance to Humboldt Bay.

I remember hearing of this tragedy recently. I'm so sorry about the death of your son-in-law and the other gentleman. I will pray for your family tonight. My husband is a captain and I know how unforgiving the ocean can be especially the Northern CA waters in the winter.
