Dennis Walters: A life of turning tragedy into triumph

If Dennis Walters had never had the accident, never lost the use of his legs, well, it's impossible to say what he would be doing now at age 65. But it's more probable than not that he wouldn't be out in the Central Florida sun hitting trick golf shots and dispensing life lessons to a couple hundred elementary school kids.

Yet here he was in Kissimmee, just south of Orlando, doing his show at a park across the street from East Lake Elementary. It was one of his last appearances in his adopted home state before he headed out on the road in a brand new RV for his 38th year of touring.
