Dear Eileen,Jim,Nancy,Ellen,&Paul.
I didn't find out until Saturday about Wallys passing. He was a good & honest man. I have many fond memories from those distant summer days, one in particular involving Wally. I was in your front yard practicing my home run swing with my brand new Louisville slugger when it slipped out of my hands and flew into the front of your house with the force of a tommahawk missle! Within 3 seconds Wally exploded through the front door with a look in his eyes that I will never forget. After a quick explaination of what just transpired & a fairly severe tongue lashing, he let me leave with my bat & my hind end intact! He was quick to forgive, though, and I was welcomed back the next day. Hope this message brings a smile on a sad day. Love to all, and my deepest sympathies.

Dear Eileen,
I know it wasn't by chance that I was searching the obituaries for someone else and learned that Wally has gone to be with the Lord. Whenever I think of you two a smile crosses my face. I know the angels in heaven are rejoicing and please know I'll be praying for you during this difficult time.

Although it has been many years since I have seen anyone in the family, some of my fondest memories as a teenager was at your home when you lived in Madisonville. My deepest heartfelt sympathy to all in the family.
