***On December 16th 2008 our family suffered a tragic but expected loss. James Huffstickle (AKA Dad) was a loving husband, father and grandfather. He will be greatly missed. While it has no doubt been one of the hardest weeks of our lives, we know that we still have a hard road ahead. In all of our heartache it is nice to know where our Dad is. While it does not make it any easier, we can find peace in knowing that he is no longer in pain. We can rest easy tonight knowing that at the time of our death he will be there to greet us.
***Everyone here at Outdoor Children’s Edventures would now like to extend our deepest gratitude to all of our friends and family who have supported us during this hard time. We have received many wonderful emails packed with words of comfort and support. It’s hard to believe that one year ago I lost my grandfather who was very influential in my life. Not only did he teach me about hunting and the outdoors, he showed me how to give 110% to help others who were less fortunate than we are. Now one year later my dad is gone also. It just tears my heart into a million pieces to think about how much I miss them. This is by far a pain that I will live with the rest of my life.
***Out of all of the hurt I feel, I can honestly promise everybody one thing. I will see to it that Outdoor Children’s Edventures will always honor their legacy, not by putting a few words up on a website, but by always giving 110% to ensure that we help as many children as possible. Without my Dad and Grandfather, Outdoor Children's Edventures would have only been talked about. They will always be in my heart even if my heart longs for the day that we meet again.
***I can not find the words to truly thank everyone enough. It’s in our darkest times of loss and sorrow that we see how truly blessed we are to have such great friends.


Thank You!!!!!

First and foremost my kids are my #1 intrest. I (Brian) have worked in NASCAR since 1996 mostly as a hobbie. I love to hunt and fish. To me it's all about the outdoors.

My Grandfather Frank "Popsickle" Huffstickle and my dad James F. Huffstickle. They introduced me to hunting and the outdoors. Where would I be without them. Sadly we lost my grandfather last year and my dad on 12-16-08 they will be greatly missed.
