Shane Ash reveals a bit of the man known as “Hawkeye” locally, John W. Hawkinson, (who passed away in 2016) in his presentation to Rotary Club members. Although some in the room had a passing acquaintance with the man who drove antique vehicles, most really didn't know what he considered valuable (something well-made) or that among his greatest treasures were the letters sent to him by his mother.
