John Walton, RIP (Georgs Kolesnikovs)
I met John when I bought an early F27 from Corsair marine. We went
on some Corsair cruises together, and it wan't until years later I realized
his ties with Wal-Mart. He was that unassuming, and the Corsair employees
never talked about his wealth. In fact, I was told he started as a
cropduster in Arizona, learned fiberglassing and started Corsair. Our lives
were sadly connected when shortly after a cruise to Mexico, both of our
sons, then aged 3, were stricken with serious diseases. I know John will
live on in Lucas, as he will in everyone who knew him.
