Not sure what to say?

Seven years since you left our home in Williston. So much has changed. The home has been sold but the memories remain. Your friends and family still miss you, Walter. You will never be forgotten.

Another year has gone by and you are still sorely missed. When we play cards, we often speak fondly of you and what a nice person you were. You will never be forgotten.

Walter, you will always be remembered. When we played cards last night, we talked about you and how important you were to all of us. Your subtle humor will always be remembered. Hard to believe you have been gone from the planet for 5 years.

Hard to believe you have left this earth 4 years ago. Seems like yesterday. All of our friends and I continue to remember you every day. Especially your wonderful smile. You will never be forgotten, Walter.

Walter, we all miss you and love you. We remember your broad smile and your wonderful personality. And your little dog, Perrita. Your John Deere tractor is in good hands and Bernie's sticker is still on the bucket loader. You left this world too soon, Walter.

CHAMP (Champlain Adaptive Mounted Program) sends our condolences to Walt's family. Walt served on CHAMP's Board of Directors. His calm approach to any issue was greatly appreciated by all. His focus was always on the riders, questioning what could be done to improve their experience. His wonderful smile was a joy to all. CHAMP was fortunate to have had Walt on the Board.

I met Walter when he joined a stakeholder advisory group for a research project at the University of Vt. I was just beginning my new job and he was such a fabulous support and voice of wisdom for me. His sense of humor set me at ease and his sincere kindness made the work so rewarding. I will always remember him walking in to meetings in his bomber jacket and his beautiful smile and twinkling eyes. Please accept my deepest sympathy and prayers for peace and joy in celebrating his life.

I enjoyed and am honored to have met and worked with Walt on a Patient and Family Centered Care at the UVMMC. He brought so much to the table and into our hearts .. honor, integrity, insightfulness and of course, his humor and twinkle in his eye. Peggy, my heart goes out to you and Walt's family. Kelly Talbert, RN, UVMMC.

Goodbye my friend. I will miss you forever.
