Another 'Feeling Sad' Story :(

[FishBuddy]

Hello My Fellow OVAS Members,

It is sad to say (I can't believe I am doing this!) that I will departing my beloved hobby...  There are many reasons why; family obligation, lack of time, or simply want to pursue other interests in life.  Over the course of a few weeks/months, you'll be seeing various livestocks followed by equipments for sale in the Classified Ads.

I've been an active (and paid) OVAS member for the past 11+ years.  Over the years, I've had the good fortune to meet and speak to many of you (and you know who you are!).  I've heard many fascinating and interesting stories from many of you in regards to the hobby.  I've also shared many of my successes and failures with you throughout these years.

Hopefully we'll bump into each sometime in the future...  All the best to each of you!

Wow
You are definitely going to be missed John. But life does change, and I'm pretty sure you will be back at some point.
Always enjoyed my visits with you when purchasing fish and the knowledge that you so selflessly shared!
Cheers Sue
