Fourth generation family member joins Wm. K. Walthers Inc.
Family business, it’s always so neat.
I’m surprised that she would be so interested in trains as to join the company.
When I was in high school in Milwaukee a long time ago, I met your grand father. He gave me a tour of the Water Street building. It was obvious how much pride he took in the company. Stacy, if you have even half as much pride, you and Walthers will do very well. The best of luck!
Wishing you all the best and a succesfull career at the firm.
Your family has given you a hard act to follow, but being a Walthers no doubt you will persevere.

My daughter and 4 year old Grand-Daughter who are both passionate about trains will be thrilled to hear of Stacy’s appointment to the firm. Good luck Stacy look forward to the day you appear on the cover of the catalogue might just do this hobby some good and clear away some sterotypes.
We are fortunate in our hobby to have successive generations of talented people come forward. As an owner of a third generation family business next door in Minneapolis,
having a hand the business honors your past and speaks well to the future. Best of Luck!
Waltheres freight equ great however the passenger cars will not go around anything but 24 inch radius period and they are way out of price.
When your grand parents visited Greece, I had the opportunity to meet them. We visited together an ancient temble near Athens and spent together nearly one day. I admired the passion your grand father had for trains and the pride he had for the company. So I am sure you will be a successful successor.
Congratulations and the best of luck. Also I think that being a woman contributes much to our hobby.
Good luck, again.

Should have said GOOD Luck and continued success! in my last submission.
