Default Sporting Classics Daily article
There’s a nice article in the May 11, 2018 online edition of Sporting Classics Daily “Of Remingtons, Parkers and Old Pats” by Tom Keer. There’s no link that I could attach. It recounts Art Wheaton’s story of working for DuPont for 41 years and how he still gets together with old DuPonters, Ken Berger, Ken Waite Jr., Ken Waite III, Tom Larson, Randy Havel, Jerry Havel, Jon Foster, Kurt Nelson, Pete Jackson, Scott Hanes, Jim Ryan, Chuck Mosher, Tim McCormack and Vic Romano Jr. to hunt and shoot a half century later. Article is worth tracking down to read.

Buy a copy of Art's book and get the whole story plus the benefit of Art's great storytelling.

It's amazing that he was so active in his 90's.... It was a very nice and fitting tribute to a man that they don't make anymore........
