Gary Walker Celebrates 65th Birthday at AREA 51 - SURPRISE!!

When Susie Walker decided to throw her husband, Gary, a surprise party for his 65th birthday at AREA 51, everyone here at the shop was very excited. The Walker family not only knows how to party, but they are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. Gary's family has been in the wrecking business for nearly 80 years so it's no surprise that he's a car guy. Susie was able to put together about a dozen pictures of some of Gary's cars and hot rods that he's owned over the years which were on display around the shop. When it was time for the birthday boy's entrance, his son, Ron, drove him into the party to the shouts of "Surprise!".... and the party was on! Family and friends provided most of the food and our very own "Pato" did the bbq, some awesome tri tip roast and chicken. After dinner it was time for Gary's other passion...poker! Gary Walker's Happy Birthday Poker Tournament was a huge success with one of Gary's sons, Gary, winning the tourney! What a great night and what a great family. Congratulations Gary!
