I worked with Walt during his tenure as Principal of Immaculate Conception School in Dayton. He was always cordial, cooperative, and understanding of our financial challenges, and was genuinely concerned about the welfare of our students. Walt worked to raise the level of academic instruction throughout the school. He was sorely missed when he left for another job. Rest in peace, Walt.

Walt was such an instrumental influence on my religious growth. He had a strong passion for his family, faith and the Catholic school system. I am forever grateful for the time I got to spend with him on projects and board meetings. I am blessed to have had him as a friend.

Walt will certainly be missed. His love for his family was very evident and we enjoyed having him and Sylvia visit Elkhart, IN whenever they came to visit their daughter Michelle.
