SCHALK: Fondly remembering a friend

I just finished reading the March 13 article on Johann Schalk and would like to add a couple thoughts about him. I met Johann through his son Steve. We hunted elk on Cemetery Ridge in the St. Joe area. I know Johann as a wonderful friend, father and grandfather. He was always the first one up and made sure none of us had the opportunity to sleep in. In the evenings he would tell us stories around the camp fire about his life in Germany and in the military.

I consider Johann a good friend and miss those few days we spent together on the mountain.
