Title: Nancy "Redbird" LaClair has passed.....
Post by: Roger Norris on August 11, 2016, 12:11:00 PM
I post this with a heavy heart....Ron LaClair's beloved wife and companion Nancy "Redbird" LaClair passed away yesterday morning. Ron was at her bedside as she passed, as he has been for the last few years as she declined. Ron showed us all how MEN should care for an ailing and weak loved one. He saw to her comfort and well being in their home, and most recently as she rested in hospice.

Nancy was not just Ron's wife (a marriage of 58 years) but she was in his words "the backbone of everything we have ever done".

Nancy was an accomplished longbow shooter and bowhunter in her own rite, and will forever be remembered as the beautiful "Redbird".

Please join me and the ShrewHaven boys as we pray for Nancy and Ron.

The trail into Shrewhaven Lodge is appropriately named "Redbird Ln". You can just make out the street sign that Ron had made years ago and placed in a big hemlock right at the gate to camp.  

 (http://i1246.photobucket.com/albums/gg617/shrewshooter/2012workbeegateinw2_zps68aac6a2.jpg) (http://s1246.photobucket.com/user/shrewshooter/media/2012workbeegateinw2_zps68aac6a2.jpg.html)

There is a lot that can be said here for Nancy, but nothing more important than she was Ron's life partner and everything you've seen here on Tradgang about Ron included Nancy at his side  and as Roger started this thread off with, Ron personally cared for her right to the end. Enjoy the happy hunting grounds Redbird.

Thank you dear friends for your love and support. Right now I feel like the core has been cut out of me.

Those that knew her well, saw her kind and gentle nature. There was no room for hate in her heart for it was full of love for life and the outdoors. She loved her longbow and still talked about it long after she no longer had the strength to shoot.

She was my hunting partner since our very first fall together in 1958. I will miss her terribly.
