Walt Bellm - Rumors and Apologies
By Scott Currier

I apologize for mistakenly posting that Walt Bellm had passed away.
I had heard that rumor years ago, and not knowing Walt or his family
personally, had no reason to doubt it.  I'll try to check the facts
better next time...

I feel really bad about the whole issue since I know how awful it is to
lose a good friend.  It would be terrible to believe a friend was gone
when in fact they were not.

My only knowledge of the museum was the many visits I paid to it whenever
I was in Florida many years ago, visiting an uncle of mine in Sarasota.
I always loved the half restored car in the museum!

Mea Culpa,

Scott Currier
