Not sure how many of you follow the television show "Deadliest Catch" but captain Phil Harris of the Cornelia Marie has passed away. Could not get much information just yet but, apparently, he suffered a massive stroke last month and died yesterday.
I am a fan of the show and feel a sense of loss. Those that are familiar with this program will recall that Harris lived a pretty unhealthy life. He chain smoked, did not eat properly and was under tremendous stress. His sons work on the boat with him and it was a "family" business catching crab. I always considered Harris my "favorite" on the show. He was quite a character. I am pretty sure he was almost my age but I would like to believe I look a bit better than he did...HA!!!!!!
A sad day for Discovery Channel and us fans. R.I.P. Phil.
