End of an Era

Post by Cajun Casey » Thu Nov 24, 2011 9:31 pm

Got this off Crosscountry's FB just now.

Our sincere condolences to the family of Mr. Wilson Dunn of Grand Junction, TN and his dog trainer, Wade Griffin, of Holly Springs, MS. Mr. Wilson passed away this evening at the age of 93. Mr. Wilson has had a long time relationship with the field trial tradition; not only by owning/operating Wilson's Sporting Goods, but also by owning National Champion "Dunn's Fearless Bud". He was a great asset to the field trial community, and will be greatly missed.

What a sad day for the pointing dog community. Our 11 year old pointer is a Dunn's Fearless Bud pup. Condolences to the family.

I did not know him, but I have always believed that when such a person passes away, the world loses a library of knowledge. My condolences to the family and the bird dog community.
