Birth*Otto Henry Wallingford was born on 31 August 1923 in Auburn, Androscoggin County, MaineG.1 
Marriage*He married Margaret Evelyn Stackpole, daughter of Miner Stackpole and Ruth Batchelder, on 7 August 1948 in Augusta, Kennebec County, MaineG. She was from Augusta and he was from Auburn, Maine when they got married.2,1 
Death*Otto died unexpectedly on 2 January 2000 at home on Young's Corner Road in Auburn, Androscoggin County, MaineG. According to the SSDI his last residence was in Auburn, Maine.3 
He was educated in the grammar schools of Auburn, was a 1941 graduate of Edward Little High School and a 1948 graduate of the University of Maine at Orono, majoring in agricultural engineering. He was a member of Alpha Gamma Rho and served as president, and continued to be an active alumni. He was a veteran, SGT 1st Class, of World War II, serving in the U.S. Army as part of a salvaging team, diving for Japanese and American Ships in Okinawa. After his service period ended, he completed his college degree and married his college sweetheart, Margaret "Peg" Stackpole of Augusta in Augusta on August 7, 1948. He successfully operated B.H. Wallingford Orchards, the family business, from 1948 to 1968 where he patented an apple grading machine and built the first controlled atmosphere apple storage building. He started the Maine Dredging Company in 1959.

In 1961 Otto and a boyhood friend, Dr. Camille Gardner of Lewiston, opened Lost Valley, a popular local area where thousands of skiers, including Olympians Karl Anderson and Julie Parisien, would be introduced to the sport. "Otto did most of the work developing the area because I was too busy with my practice," said Gardner, a veterinarian. "He put together the first snow-making system in the state and also made Lost Valley the first area in Maine to offer night skiing." To groom the slopes when the artificial snow became packed and icy, Wallingford developed the Powder Maker, a metal cylinder that broke up the crust when pulled behind a vehicle. "He had an engineering degree from Maine but he was also a seat- of-the-pants engineer," Gardner said. "He had a knack of taking a problem and working it over in his mind until he could make things better." Wallingford patented his grooming machine in the United States and five European countries. In 1961 he founded Valley Engineering to make and sell the equipment, then sold the company in 1975. Fern Pontbriand of Auburn became Wallingford's and Gardner's partner at Lost Valley in 1967, then bought the business from them in 1988. He also founded Valley Sports in 1973 and as a registered Maine Guide, ran a wilderness vacation business from 1969 to 1974. In addition to his business and engineering endeavors, he was probably most well known for his creative and inventive mind, sometimes even designing on the back of a napkin. In recognition of his contributions to the ski industry, he was awarded the "Thanks for Making a Difference" award in 1995 at a celebration of the 125th anniversary of the Maine Skiing Association. He served the community in many ways, such as a Boy Scout Leader for five years, opening his home as a Y.M.C.A. day camp, as director of the Eastern States Farmers Exchange, participating on the Edward Little High School Building Committee for 12 years and as a Director of Auburn Savings Bank. He was a hunter and an avid fly-fisherman, fishing everywhere from the Allagash to Ontario, N.Y., and Alaska with his wife and friends. He and his wife, Peg, enjoyed traveling in their R.V., exploring every Canadian province and most of the United States. He was a skilled woodworker, crafting furniture and toys for his six grandchildren. He also enjoyed cooking for family and friends and spending time and playing cribbage at one of his favorite spots Downeast, Cranberry Lake.3,4

His obituary appeared in the 5 September 2006 Morning Sentinel (Waterville, ME) and read as follows:

RICHARD L. WALLINGFORD BINGHAM -- Richard L. Wallingford, 80, one of the best known draft horseman in the United States, had his time in the ring run out on Sunday, Sept. 3. Dick had some of the most beautiful teams of horses that ever existed, and traveled the country competing at country fairs and community events. He and his horses still hold the world record for the largest load ever pulled by a two-horse team. He was one of the founders of the Maine Draft Horse and Ox Association. Dick was also involved for many years in the local community. He was the Master Mason of the Bingham Lodge, Worthy Patron of the Eastern Star and a member of the Kora Shrine Temple. He served for many years on the SAD 13 school board, often as chair. Dick ran a successful logging and sawmill operation in West Forks for more than 45 years, but will be remembered for his beautiful horses and his ability to handle them in such a skillful manner. He invented and marketed the first aluminum hames for draft horses, and ended up managing many pulling events during his later years. Dick also co-founded Wallingford's Inc., an international wholesale logging supply distribution company. He was the son of John and Bessie Wallingford and was raised as one of five children at Perkins Ridge in Auburn on a successful family apple orchard farm. He served in the Navy during World War II as a pilot and attended both the University of North Carolina and Yale. Dick is survived by his wife of 62 years, Winnie; four children and their families, Linda and her husband, Jim West, of Bingham, three sons, spouses and five grandchildren; Dick Jr. and his wife, Elaine Wallingford, of Rockwood, one son and two daughters, spouses and two grandchildren; Diane Wallingford of Jacksonville, Fla., and her husband, son and daughter; John Wallingford of Oakland and his two daughters, spouses and five grandchildren.
