Walt Diamond was a true gem.

Dear Sheri
I was just flipping thru the Jewish Journal and Walter's photo struck out at me. wow, the years since Malibu sure went fast. how fondly I remember you and Walter and your warmth and welcome to me and my children at a time of challenge and life transition. going out to dinner or just hanging out was always comfortable and felt like family. My thoughts go out to you and please convey to Jeff also, at this most difficult time. May you find comfort among the mourners of Zion and...

I first want to thank Walt, Lou, Russ and others for the career I have had for almost 30 years. My deepest sympathies to Sherrie and all of Walt's family. Walt hired me 4 different times and I do not know where I would be if it wasn't for Walt believing in me and the many chances he gave me to suceed. I will never forget the kind, loving and giving man. Bye Walt, you will be missed but everyday I look around and I am surrounded by your legacy. Forever grateful!

It was my pleasure to know him and I'm truly sorry the world lost such a wonderful man. Prayers to all of the family members.

Sheri, Russ, Jeff and Glenn, I am so very sorry to hear of your loss.

Walt will be greatly missed by all who had the chance to know him. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

My deepest condolences for your loss.

Sheri - I will miss Walter. I looked forward to the few words of greeting we shared at the DFS screening & at the Film Festival. he was always so pleasant. His successes in business and in life speak to his character and intelligence. I knew him as soft spoken and friendly, with a nice smile for everyone. That's how I'll remember him.
With the support of your family and many friends you will get through this sad time. You pop up in my life at unexpected times & in unexpected places. That's...
