HEIN WAGNER
It has been said that people born blind grow and mature with an intellect absolutely void of the pre-conceptions or judgments of those with sight. Their minds become formidable think tanks… platforms from which they develop razor sharp insights into life’s everyday problems & challenges.
Hein Wagner is such a man - a man who lists more personal achievements than many!
