There are only a handful of people who come into your world, and touch your life in a dramatic fashion. Some people are just flickers of light during a long life, while others are consistent glows for years. For me Walter was a consistent glow. He was my stepfather for almost 14 years. He filled the void left by the death of my father. We shared some wonderful times together and he graced my life more than he will ever know. God bless you Walter I will miss you.

My heart is filled with love and of memories spent in the company of Walter and my mother. The evenings spent on the patio in the Forest and the days we enjoyed on the front porch in Livingston, you will be remembered with love. Sending you love.

In memory of my granddad--rest in peace now, you had a wonderful life filled with many treasured times with family, friends, and loved ones. You touched many lives and will be remembered for your wisdom and strength. Your grandchildren and great-grandchildren will carry on and honor the legacy and family traditions you instilled in each of us.
I love you and will miss you.
