A member of the Lake Huron Fishing Club, Laverne Blacklock passed away this morning.
If you knew this genuine man, you know how much he will be missed. If you did not know Laverne, you probably have fished next to or spoke about the weather with at one time or another as he was always about checking conditions engaging in friendly conversation.
He was a sole part of crew with Grant McAlpine at the Dennys Dam Fish Lift program and his efforts will never be forgotten. Laverne was an avid wood carver, custom rod builder and passionate fisherman and will be severely missed by many on and around the Saugeen River and local area. The winter months will feel empty with out him for a while as he was one of the few locals picking fish off in muddy waters.
Rest In Peace Laverne
