Walt Disney's hands preserved in bronze

He has his Claddagh ring and wedding ring on as you can see.

Sorry to read about the passing of your Dad. That is so great that you got to spend time with him at WDW. I never knew anything about this facinating collection of historic hands. Thanks for the link.
