In 1999 Wallace wrote these words on the back of a photograph of his Super Chevy award winning Impala: "Words can't express enough the appreciation that I have for the friendship you have offered me since 1992. I will always cherish the moments we shared together "turning wrenches" and competing as a team. You're one of a kind! God Bless, Sincerely, Wallace Keese".
