It is the last weekend of our trip; we fly back to the UK on Wednesday. Lorraine and Fred Webster and Kathy and Steve Delman had been planning a Walker reunion party. Kick-off was at 5:00 PM at Fred and Lorraine’s house in Petaluma and, when Carol and I arrived at about 3:30 PM, ostensibly to help, preparations were faultless and well advanced. Everything was well in-hand and all I was likely to do was get in the way.
I am sure everybody had a great time; I know I did. It was fabulous to see so many fondly remembered colleagues after so long. I’ll let a few pictures speak for themselves.
It is a testament to the four organizers that everything went so smoothly. It is a testament to the bonds that exist between Walker employees that, after 10 years or so, they get back together and the years dissolve.
Lorraine, Kathy, Fred and Steve: you did a magnificent job. I cannot express how honored/honoured and grateful we are for all your hard work. We are fortunate, indeed, to have so many good friends.
What a send-off!
How depressing. I realise now what I must look to everyone else. Its definitley time to retire and put up my feet. If only banks had not screwed up it would be an option.
