Hey Walter, it was great working with you. Thanks for being a part of our production. Your acting was great. I thought you would be perfect for the part in this film and you were. I believe we have a little more shooting to do and I look forward to working with you to finish up what is left. I was hoping to get your phone number. I have one in my contact book but I believe it is outdated, as I was unable to contact you when I called it. I would like to get your new number. You can email it to me at kevanfossen@hotmail.com if you don't mind. Anyhow, thanks again for all your help. Talk to you soon!
