Unfortunately today, Will John Martin, AKA Chocolate Seal, Committed Suicide. Will John has had a long battle with the bottle and it finally consumed him today. Will John was the most Genuine guy I knew. You always knew where you stood with him and just about no matter who you were or how he felt about you, he would always be there for you if you needed him!! Please pray for his family as they are going through one hell of a time right now. As soon I know funeral arrangements I'll post them, All I know right now is that the funeral will be in Indianola.

This may be a good time to tell some GOOD stories about ole Chocolate Seal!!!

I can't believe he's gone!

I hate to hear that...I remember the first time I met Will John at OVPC almost 3 years ago.... there was a girl there in yellow and black if I remember.... Will John and I sat there and oogled while talking fishing for quite a while that evening....

his family and friends are in my prayers, he will be missed....

Man I hate to hear that! He was one of a kind for sure.. I remember meeting him last Feb. at the goose hunt in Ark. First thing he asked me was if my dog could count :lol: For those of you who were there, you know what I'm talking about.

He will surely be missed. Prayers go out to his family!

:shock: I am shocked to hear this! I met him at the dog demo that they did before the 2006 season at the Bass Pro Shop. I was so impresed with his dog(and others) that I went and bought a lab that night!(from a guy on here that came highly recomended) and was gonna start training her. Because of my work and the enthusiasm of a lab (I am away sooo much) my wife could not deal with Bella and I reluctantley sold her to someone else on here who trains for hunt test and wanted one for his 9 y/o to campaingn! So because of meeting Will John and "Chocolate Seal" that saturday, A kid down Hattisburg way is enjoying a great friendship with his black lab!

Rest well old boy, and prayers go out for those left behind. :cry:
