Tred Barta, host of “The Best and Worst of Tred Barta” on Versus Television and avid fisherman and hunter, suffered a spinal stroke last week. After losing feeling in both legs up to a point halfway between his chest and navel, he was treated at Denver Health Medical Center in Denver, Colo., and is now at the Craig Rehab Center in Denver.
I had the opportunity to interview Tred Barta for a Versus Television podcast in September 2008. He is one of the most energetic, entertaining, outspoken, and knowledgeable supporters of hunting, fishing, and shooting sports, and we all benefit from his contributions.
I wish him well. His positive outlook and strong faith should help him overcome this adversity.
