Oh, not knowing there were two Whit actors is a common mistake, 101, as I expect you know. I've already mentioned I made it. Tom was a delight, a down-to-earth, cheerful man. We all miss him, of course. He had that genuineness of character that made us think of him as real. He had that wonderful voice. He had that beauty of mind and spirit. He was funny. He was intriguing. He was kind. He was intelligent. And, slowly but surely, he wound his gentle way into our hearts, deeper than any of us knew. And Walker was just as good at being Bart. None of us like Bart much as a person, but we all found him greatly comical. Goodbye, Walker Edmiston. We miss you around Odyssey.
"I can't wait for our long talk, Whit."
"Whit, sometimes I'm not sure about that boy."
"Come on, Davey! Keep your eye on it! Watch his windup, you can do it!"
