To Walters Family, I haven't seen "Wally" in years but have great memories of him. He was a great guy and I'll always remember him riding around town on his ten speed with a cold six pack of Heineken in the front pouch. He was actually my older brother's age but they would let me tag along. So sorry to hear of his passing. God Bless. My sincere condolences, Larry Reed
