WHPVA representatives

De VPH

It is with great regret that we must announce the death of previous WHPVA chairman Richard Ballantine in May 2013. Richard led the WHPVA almost from the start (still as IHPVA), administered the change to WHPVA, filled this Wiki with content, and worked hard to shape the WHPVA until his strength started to leave him. A more complete appreciation of Richard Ballantine is to follow.
