Not sure what to say?

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Walter was always kind and caring. He encouraged enjoying the outdoors through his work as a state park ranger. He was always fair and loved to meet new people and talk. His engaging personality made Bayou Segnette a fun place to visit.
My condolences to his family. He will be missed. Stacy Hall
