Walter Young MacDonald

My family took me and my brother to Ann Arbor to see Walt in the mid 1970´s until 1980 when I graduated HS.Walt visited me when I landed in San Francisco in the early 80´s when he would attend Esalen workshops. He gave me very positive feedback and encouragement. Know my mother was helped by Walter too. RIP my friend. I looked you up because as a school librarian, I´m reading a book that mentioned Tito from Yugoslavia and Walt would often mention Tito. I´m sorry to learn about the...

Walter, you helped me many years ago while I lived in Ann Arbor. Without your care , good counsel and therapy I would have not returned to make a successful life and marriage and raise a wonderful family here in the Uk. I would not have returned to Christ. I remember and thank you often Many blessing and love.

Sending Love and Grace in Passage. You are a gift that keeps on giving. Thank you, Walter.

Everyone loved him.

Walt was a great friend, wise counselor, and the most intuitive person I ever met. He also took penetrating portrait photographs and collected rocks and shells his whole life which made their way into creative works of art later in his life.

Lea Anne, Betsy and I extend our deepest sympathies for your loss. We are deeply disappointed that we will be out of town for the funeral, but wanted to reach out to you this way in order to acknowledge his death and honor his memory. Walt was a kind and gentle man and always a good friend. In a roundabout way, I and others were responsible for Walt coming to Toledo. We enjoyed his company and his often unique views. Thank you so much for taking care of him all these years. Walt, you...
