Title: DJ Hollister..one jolly woodcutter thst will be missed..
Post by: timberlinetree on December 15, 2017, 03:52:21 AM
DJ was found by one of his employees in the skid streer. I heard it was s heart attack? He started from scratch, old truck,chain saw and worked very hard and had recently bought one of the new style  splitters. Had me buy to see it. He was proud of that thing. He was born,raised and died in the same town, and cutting firewood was all he did and alot of it he did. He kept alot of people warm and cozy!

Our fishing story:

We were best of fishing buddy's and always in compation with each other. Well we fished the stream through the farmland, which was slow and warm water, and each had 2 dase each. Up ahead where the brook went into the woods, and sped up was a deep hole that always had the promise of a trout.  We both sped up to the hole, and started fishing the same hole. Well  he yelled " got one" ,but I found myself thinking the same thing? Low and behold, we caught the same fish! The score: 2.5 fish each!

Will miss ya fishing/ woodcutting buddy! RIP

I am truly sorry for your loss. We cross paths with a lot of people in our lifetimes and occasionally a guy like that comes into our lives. Treasure the memories.

Sad day to loose someone with a warm heart. If it be known, that is the way I would like to go.

Now that's a fishing story. One that should be shared by the ones that knew and loved him.
