WAYNE DANIELS, FUHS TEACHER


Rhys Cogswell, 20 months old, takes a walk through the yard of the Wayne "Tulip Man" Daniels, 73, at 688 N. Woods Avenue in Fullerton. Cogswell was visiting the tremendous display of tulips and other bulb flowers with his grandmother, Pat Trotter of Fullerton. Each year around Thanksgiving, Daniels plants thousands of tulips and other bulbs in his yard. He said this year's rains and cold snap have made his yard especially proliferate.

Mr. Daniels was a GREAT teacher at Fullerton High School in the 1980's and 1990's. As much as we (his students) appreciated him then, I'm sure his neighbors are enjoying the bouquet. I hope he is now retired and enjoying his garden as much as he did the classroom.
