 Wally House - February 5, 2010
 
 
Wally was a past Distinguised Service Award winner at the 2009 Ohio State Rabbit Breeders Convention. He will be missed   as he helped in many ways with the setting up and tearing down of our State Convention show. As a Columbus area person he bailed us out many times to run errands and get needed supplies. Wally servered on the equipment committee and helped bail out National ARBA Conventions with his checking on our semi trailers.

 Wally has been active as adviser with the Franklin County Fair and helped promote the rabbit show on the 4-H Advisory Board. He was an assistant scout leader with the boy scouts. We most remember Wally as active memeber of the OSRBA and his help to put on the crown jewel show in the state of Ohio. The 2010 Mini Convention is in dedication to Wally and Brian Hartzell.
