We are so sorry about Uncle Wally. He looked really well at our father's calling hours so we were really surprised to hear he had passed away. Tim and Joe are very sorry they are not able to make it home for his funeral. Dennis and I probably will not be able to come to the calling hours but we definitely will be at the funeral Friday. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. All our love.
