If you're a dedicated Deadliest Catch watcher, you know that the Bearing Sea takes many lives.

Well, last night Captain Phil Harris of the Cornelia Marie died. He was 53, he had a stroke not too long ago, went into surgery, and then lost the battle.

R.I.P Captain Phil, my long time favorite.

RIP indeed. I heard about this yesterday. A great shame to lose the captain.

=( RIP Captain Phil - your fans and crew shall miss you =/

Thanks for the ping. I read about this earlier. My hubby is a fan of the show. Very sad indeed.

RIP. ;( That show wasn't my cup of tea, my dad watches it all the time though. It's a pretty hard job from the clips and snips I've seen of it though.

Very hard job, crab fishing is. Though you can make some killer money

He was my favorite. He'll be dearly missed.
