I would like to say that i grew up watching Walter on channel 4 news everyday and he was a mainstay in our homes and then when our sons were growing up they watched him with us too and always liked him and i remember when Warren Culbertson was the weather man on Walter's newscast everyday. Im much older now but i cherish those days and memories of Walter and life back then. He will always be missed by many. I still think of him often.

Marilyn...you taught me "your mercies are new every morning, great is your faithfulness"
I pray that verse is holding you close as your grieve and celebrate your man. He was big in stature and big in wisdom and life. I feel so blessed to have known him and you. Love comes your way!

We met Walter through the Walk to Emmaus. I don't know if we ever met a sweeter soul. I had the honor of serving as Board Rep when he was Lay Director. As a news and history buff I couldn't get enough of his stories from his work in news. RIP well done good and faithful servant.
