Not sure what to say?

My clearest and fondest memory of Wally was in 1958 when he sat in as my "dad" during a father/son swim meet at Ellington Ridge CC. He was a great man with a huge heart and will be remembered with tremendous respect,admiration and affection. He will be truly missed.

To Debbie, Kimmy, and WallyJr.,

Dearest Aunt Lorraine, Cousins Wally, Kim, and Deb,
As we all think of Uncle Walter, it is only with thoughts of smiles and laughter. Without a doubt, he always added such joyous color to family gatherings. We will never forget meeting up on several occasions with Lorraine and Walter in Key West and their showing all of us (including our Daughters Morgan and Daron) the fun life in Key West (Burger King, and beaches and restaurants far too absurd to mention online). ...and certainly we...

Our family grieves so with your family over the death of Tom's and my dear, dear friend of so many years, your beloved husband/Dad, Wally. May God forever hold him in His arms. Love, Bette Wolff and family

Our sincerest condolences to the Cichon family. Always remember Mr. Cichon attending St. Luke's mass on Sundays with the family in tow. Such a gentleman, such a loss for everyone.

Dear Lorraine and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I never had the privilege of meeting Wally, but I have heard many amazing stories. Having the opportunity to get to know Walter and your family has truly touched my daughter Audrey's heart.
God bless you all.

My deepest condolences go out to the Cichon family,

Wally was truly one of a kind—there will never be another. Wally taught me the game of golf in 1968 at 9 years old, and I would play many rounds over the years with Wally on and off the golf course until 1981. People should know, at one time he could really play, I was lucky to witness many of these great rounds. We did have some fun! Those Pro-Am car rides…I will have a Schlitz in his memory--- I’ll Slap my hands together, bang...

Debbie Gary and Family,

Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Carol Chip and family
