Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday, Walter! Denis Kallery and I were among the many who heard you speak "in person" at the Assembly this past July. When recounting the summer's adventures, Denis never leaves out the part about meeting you in the parking lot and shaking your hand.

Your life's work has given much to the world-- and your legacy will continue, on-and-on, as with that of the other great canoe craftsmen. May the peace and joy you've brought to the world come back to you, a hundred-and-one times greater!

Walter,

Happy Birthday! I have a paddle of yours that you carved for me a few years ago. I think you were a young 96 or so. I got it through Jack Wagner. I can only hope that I am as spry as you when I am 2/3 your age! Enclosed is a picture of your paddle out on Lake Tahoe.
