Not sure what to say?

Dear Carol and family,
We are so sorry to hear of Walt's passing. What a wonderful man. We are sending you all prayers and love and will cherish memories of our dear neighbor Walt from Rogers Avenue

Sorry to hear about your loss. I liked Mr. Gannon the moment I met him and although I have not seen him in more the twenty-five years, he left an impression on me that lasts to this day. The world needs more guys like Walter Gannon and now sadly there is one fewer.

My prayers are with Walter may he rest in peace. Walter was a friend who I could rely on when in need while working a Public Service. As a young department head he was very helpful to me. While I use to drive him crazy ,we had many laughs and enjoyable days at work. Rest in Peace ,Walter.

Rest in Peace Walt---- You will be in the thoughts and prayers of a lot of PSE&G folks.

My thoughts and prayers are with you Mrs Gannon, Rich , Robyn and family. I will never forget Coach Gannon. The best memories were Union Little League. I know a lot of people will feel and say the same thing. Coach Gannon was truely the best. He had a way of getting you to perform at the next level without you even knowing it. He will be missed but not forgotten. God Bless you all.

Dear Carol,

We have fond memories of Walt and you especially double dating. Many laughs and good times together. We will keep you in our prayers and God Bless you.
