I’ll always remember Walt as a sweet, friendly, hospitable guy. I know he will be sorely missed by his family and friends. I would have been with the family on this sad day but being in Florida and the current circumstances (age and COVID) are keeping me close to home. My love and caring are with you all. Cousin Carol Esther (Fegley).
