Not sure what to say?

I lived down the street from the Walls on Kenilworth Avenue in the late 50s and babysat occasionally for the kids at that time: Robert, Freddy and baby Mary Lou. Mr.and Mrs. Wall were always dressed up for whatever social engagement they were attending and made a handsome pair. I remember Mrs. Walls mother being there sometimes and she was an elegant lady too. My mother, Nancy Kelly, was dearest friends with Fran Reynolds and we all knew what a special bond she had with her beloved brother,...

My desk was next to Bob's at Forest Atwood Paper Co for 20 years. We had many good talks and lots of laughs over those years. He was always fun to be around. My deepest sympathy to the Wall family.

I would like to give my deepest condolences to the wall family for the loss of their loved one. I always remembered Mr. Wall as being a very nice man. I played with his son Stephen When growing up in Wilmette. Also, I remember when Mr. Wall came to my Parent's home for one of their parties that he was always the life of the party on the dance floor. R.I.P Mr. Wall.

To Mary Lou, My deepest sympathy. I will remember both of you in my prayers. Mary Fran Lavezzorio Hughes
