Update from Pauline concerning visits with Walter Enns. Now that the big rush of visitors has calmed down you can still call Bob Dyck 204-831-6012 to schedule a visit or get access to the online sign-up sheet. You are also welcome to contact some of his more regular visitors, Bob Dyck, Marianne Grier, Lynell Bergen or Pauline to see when they are going and tag along if you like. Remember to write a little note in Walter's Visitors' Book; it is nice to know who has dropped by, and Walter cannot always remember from day to day when he is asked.
