About santawalter
Before becoming an elementary school teacher, we moved to San Jose in '81 to reopen the Laundry Works Restaurant on San Pedro Square, managed several food service operations, and designed restaurants and other food facilities for 7 years.
Recently finished Hospice training at Hospice of the Valley to be a year-round Santa for families in crisis.
During the Christmas season, wearing the red suit, a real beard, and a permanent twinkle in the eye, I serve as the Santa for Willow Glen as well as for numerous parties.
