I never miss your column in the North Bay Nugget or  Community Voice. I Love it. Reminds me of my Grandfather  A gentle hard-working orderly person who never  wasted a thing in his  life and could make me a whistle or a toy or a very useful  item out of something he knew the exact where-abouts-of.  He went overseas during  World War I, and the only stories I remember him telling  were in relation to the kindly and appreciative people  he met and the countryside.  He raised a wonderful family of 5 after his wife died  in child-birth.  Mom was the oldest and had to quit school at the age of 13  to stay home with her siblings. You are so right.  It WAS a hard life, but those people will never be forgotten. Thanks for keeping their memories alive. Elva

Good-morning George.

Just wanted to say I enjoy reading your columns in the Nugget and Community Voice, they are lucky to have you.
I look forward to seeing what you are going to choose for a topic each week. Oh, Your Books are awesome, looking forward to your new one in the spring.

Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy your stories.  It is the first thing I look for in the Community Voices. I am sure I missed your first ones because I don t know who Laura is.  My guess is that you were taken in as a child by her and husband. It sounds like it was the kinda of childhood that I  always wanted. Your stories are so down to earth and I use a lot of your  tips for the garden etc. Keep it up  and the next time I see you in the IGA in Sundridge I am going to speak to you and maybe get your autograph.  That way I will have it before your autobiography comes out.  Be well       Pamela

Dear Mr Walters,

I am overwhelmed by your wonderful response. I feel that you wrote a whole story just for us. Thank You, Thank You. We are so looking forward to meet you in the spring. Your stories are always interesting, so please do not stop writing . I am sure that even if you did not write in the paper, you would still write on all the interesting subjects you cover.
We do not get the North Bay Nugget, but are considering it now.

Just a note to your staff editors. I look forward to the Saturday morning paper as I am a follower of George Walters. When it was on Wednesday I would still read him first. I am from the farm life, before I joined the Service, Now retired here in North Bay, I  can relate to his stories. I head for that section first then I read the rest. So pass this on to George please top keep up the stories.
Thank you Nugget Editors
