doublegunshop.com - home Forums General Discussion DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com To Friends of Bill Wise

I had a wonderful visit with Rosalie Wise today, quite inspiring as always. Of course, several of us probably visited with her at the Vintagers as I did. I was accompanied by Berle Cherney, who photographed the Matska article for Bill and the Pigeon Gun article for Shooting Sportsman at Bill's house. We had a nice lunch, talked about Bill and Rosalie's early days pioneering Hobie surfboard and bikini sales on the East Coast in Ocean City, Maryland and Fenwick Island, Delaware, where Berle and I also spent the warm weather periods of our youths. As I said, it was an inspiring day. Bill Murphy

Thanks for posting that, Bill. Rosalie is a wonderful and kind woman.

Thanks Bill, I think of the Wise one often.

He is often in my thoughts.
Thanks for sharing.
Best,
John

Thanks Bill, my correspondence and meetings with Bill at the Vintagers will always be treasured. I often think how much more civil this board would be if he was still here.

There is always a good women behind a good man and Ms.Rosalie is a great one.

Yes, nice story, Bill. It is nice to hear she is doing well. Thanks for the info.

Thank's Bill. My best wishes to Rosalie and the rest of Bill's family!

Bill had a way of touching us all, and putting our problems in perspective. He was a true gentleman. I am proud to have known him.
Rosalie is simply an angel.

Very good to hear that Rosalie was out and about at the Vintagers. She is an amazing lady. Thanks for extending the tale of your sessions at this year's event.
