Tikiskip,

I was poking around and found your site, and just wanted to clear up some information you posted back in October:

“NAME: Bernard C Altenbach
BIRTH: abt 1904 - Ohio
RESIDENCE: 1935 - Columbus, Franklin, Ohio
RESIDENCE: Columbus, Franklin, Ohio

BERNARD C ALTENBACH was born 27 March 1904, got Social Security number 300-01-9607 (indicating Ohio,) and died 24 July 1995. BERNARDINE ...”

This Bernard Altenbach is not the architect who designed the Kahiki. This is actually his father, also named Bernard Altenbach. Bernie Altenbach, the Kahiki architect, was born in 1927 and died about 1998. The Altenbach listed above is my grandfather. Bernie the architect was my uncle. By the way, that photo you were describing—is it available for posting? I’d love to see it.
