Our deepest sympathy for your loss. We met Mr. Cohen during his time at Brookdale Independent Living. He was such a gracious and kind person. He will be missed. Our prayers are with the Cohen Family, God Bless and keep you.

Wally was a very special person. As you know I knew him when I was very young living in Tuscaloosa when he was at the University. when ever I would see him through the years he always had a smile a warm greeting and truly interested how I was doing. He was not only a "Mensch" but a loving husband to Marcia, father and grandfather.
I will truly miss him.
Love,
Morton and Sylvia Banks

Dear Laura and family, my sincerest condolences on the passing of your father."May you know no more sorrow" E Ehye Zickrono Baruch

Laura,
I only wish I'd have known the man who was your father. He gave you strength and the beauty of life. To have such a daughter as you tells me so much about him. You know have a special star in the heavens to look upon. May he be blessed and may you only have fond memories. I miss being able to hold you and mingle our tears.

May his memory be a blessing. I am so sorry for your loss, and, though I didn't know him, I know you, and that tells me all I need to know about him. I know he was a great and gentle and loving and good man, for you are a beautiful reflection of him...
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

My deepest condolences to Celia, Laura, and Donna and your families. Uncle Wally was a kind man and delightful conversationalist, a pleasure to be with. I am grateful to have known him and so sorry for your loss. May his memory be a blessing.
