Wally was a former neighbor, and special friend. If you had a problem he would always listen, sometimes his advice was good and sometimes not but he always cared for people. He was funny and would say thing just to get a reaction out of you. I always enjoyed talking to him. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. May he rest in peace.
