Uncle Wally... think of you often and miss you very much. Time goes by too fast, life happens and families become distant. Miss our weekend trips to VA, being snowed in during the blizzard of 1993, you letting my drive your corvette, your good cooking, the pond and the pigs.
Love you always

My husband's friendship with Wally started years ago when Wally ran the Dog Pound on Mills Avenue. My husband, Jeff Rowland, who has since passed away, worked with him some there and we had good memories of those times.

I knew Wally for many years and worked for him at the Dog Pound from time to time. We also had a restaurant for a short time. He was a very good friend and I miss him.
