I don't think anyone has worked longer for Walt's than you. Always on time and always willing to work at any shop. Not everyone knew you, but many knew of the guy who had worked for so long in an industry that sees faces come and go so quickly. How did you do it? Always with a smile and a great attitude - you were such an inspiration! May heaven be so lucky to have you.
