Sad news

[ArtS]

When I was in college in 1967, I dreamed over a Gun Digest issue to the point to the point I wrote to Dale Goens and Winston Churchill asking as to their price of stocking and engraving a custom rifle. Being poor as a church mouse, there was no way of course. Sadly, I never persued this. It pains me to think back that at that time, I could have purchased a custom stocked rifle of the best French walnut and engraved by Winston Churchill for less than $1000. I ran across the letter from GOens just the other day. The work of both of them to this day strikes me as the perfection in style of what I want in a rifle.

I met Winston in the early 90’s at Corbin Park. He was a great engraver, sculptor, and story teller! He will be missed by all that had the privilege of knowing him.
I’m fortunate to have a bust of a Rocky Mountain Sheep head he did years ago.
He may be gone but his work will live on and be an enduring legacy to him!
