Life time Fishing Licenses for Children of DFG tragedy PDF Print E-mail
 
On January 5, 2010, the Department of Fish and Game (DFG) suffered a tragic loss of three employees in a helicopter crash while on a routine serial deer survey. Clu Cotter, Associate Biologist (48 years old), Kevin O’Connor, Senior Biologist Supevisor (40 years old), and Tom Stolberg, Scientific Aid ( 31 years old), all of Fresno, were esteemed colleagues and are greatly missed.
 
DFG and the hunting and fishing communities recognize the importance of California’s sporting heritage, and need to pass it along to the next generations. These biologists are survived by six children (3 boys and 3 girls, ages 4 to 12), and in an effort to help perpetuate their connection to resource conservation and enjoyment, members of the hunting and fishing communities are asking for help in securing lifetime fishing licenses for all six children. Lifetime hunting licenses already have been secured.
