Kathy, please tell Sal Thorhammer loves him and is praying for him. He's been so good to all of us- and you too- I so much enjoyed dinner with you guys- I thought I was full, and you asked Dan to come help you bring out chicken Parm :)

Sal is a light. He's the best.

Yes I agree, Sal is the best, when I announced that my son was having his kidney removed, Sal sent me a personal message, then took the time to follow up about 6 weeks later, when I asked him how he was going with his health, he replied, I am doing just fine, he obviously was having lots of trouble then,  thats the nature of the man, for a person living on the other side of the world & we have never met, we hope you can get through this trying time, with full recovery, stay positive pal, cheers Don.

Years ago I was surfing the web looking for information on repairing my beloved Penn reels when I came across a post about a legendary 4/0 named the Tank. The more I read about the Tank the more intrigued I became and I couldn't wait to perform these same mods on my own 4/0.

Then I realized that the driving force behind this legendary reel was a guy named Sal. Sal, you are the beacon that draws so many of us to this wonderful group of like-minded people who share this love and attraction, not just to fishing but to innovation and craftsmanship, and pushing these reels to their absolute limits. I want to thank you for that because this group, this place, is very special to me. Thank you Sir. I believe you are one 'Tank' of a human being and I pray for your continued strength to beat this illness. Get well Buddy, we miss you.

Only just seeing this, and this is just devastating to hear. I hope Sal can pull through this like Alan did a couple of years ago. Much of the innovation that has been done here on Penn reels can be traced back to Sal. I know I wouldn't have even thought, or have been inspired to have done some of the modifications I have done to a variety of reels if it wasn't for Sal's work with the Tank. The testing of aftermarket parts which many now enjoy has largely been carried out by him as well. The unconditional help he gives to us all is the mark of a true gentleman.
Please fight this and win Sal. Thoughts out to you and your family. Hope to see you posting here again soon.

Aloha Sal,

I think of you everyday and night.  Hoping for the best and God Speed to your healing.  I am praying for you buddy.

I am also praying for your family.  I know the toll it takes on the family.  May your family is given strength to support each other and you from afar.

Aloha ka kou,
Bryan 
:D I talk with every part I send out and each reel I repair so that they perform at the top of their game. :D

Just reading about this disheartening news. Sal you're an inspiration to many on this board. For all the good will and karma you've put out into the world, I hope you reap the blessings now. Stay strong.

Prayers for Sal and his family, dear heavenly Father we ask that you take care of Sal and be at his side right now to comfort him and to let him know that you care and love him. That he and his family will fill the comfort of your incredible love through which your son Jesus Christ expressed with healing and compassion. In Christ Jesus name we pray. Amen

              We all Love and Care for you Sal!
