Before he died in 1987, he gave each of his sons a couple of paddles. We have two beautiful examples of the early bent paddles. We used them years ago but they are now proudly diplayed in our home. Do you have an email so that I can contact one or both of the brothers? Thanks Dave My dad was Ross Williams and the Meany brothers gave him a number of their early paddles.

My brother, Howard, and I participated in the First International Canoe Derby in 1962, placing third in that event. I am in the process of writing an article about that race. The Quetico is an integral part of my life and is my spiritual home. Joe and Vera Meany helped to make Quetico a truly wonderful place. George R. Myers I have been a Quetico devotee since 1956.
