I am so sorry to hear of Wally's passing. I enjoyed our visits checking his coumadin level. Although I had not professionally seen him in some time since he was receiving home health care, I did get to stop in on occassion to talk about the Cubs. We did have that common bond. I will miss his gentle manner.
