flannj: I've always envied those on the foum that had a chance to meet PWK.
Thanks for posting these.
I agree, he was a character they say. When we were in Hope a few times and people would ask where we were from it would always end up with them asking what were we in Hope for. We would tell them it was a get together of people who were in town to visit the Klipsch plant and Museum and they all had something to say about PWK.
Most had some kind of story but all knew of him and considered him the town genius and thought of him as a good man who was also very generous and did not hesitate to give his opinion.
Also the people he was close to, even at work all admire him very much, that says alot about what kind of person he was.
