Not sure what to say?

It´s hard to believe its 5 years now since Walter´s passing...i still miss him and think of him...i always will! We were such a special part of eachother´s lives at such a special time...a time of freedom and exploration...of trying our best to be the best parents we could be...and when we weren´t being parents, when our children were with their other parent, having the best times, the best adventures, that we could possibly have... Im not going to say that i hope Walter (or Honey as he...

I'm a friend of Walter's by way of his 2 hairdresser's, Robin Bell & our late sister Rhonda Dickerson. Robin & I frequently share a funny story involving the quick witted Walter! He's never far from our thoughts. Especially Robin who grew closer to Walter over the years before his passing. He was definitely 1 in a million. I wish the Norton family enough.. My heart & thoughts.

Walter’s passing made me realize again how fleeting life can be...i realized there were other people from the past who were once very important to me that i had lost track of... I reconnected with some of them ...one in particular...and im so glad I did...thank you Walter...love you and miss you!

I knew Walter well way back when Walter Jr and Armand were young boys ...i was one of their teachers at the Lawrence Extended Day Program...like Walter sr i, too, was a single parent with 2 sons...Walter and I became quite close and had many wonderful adventures together!
Then i moved away and both of our lives were taken up by the lives we were living! But i've never forgotten Walter and never will...he was special!

God bless Walter and his family from a childhood friend who wishes he had seen Walter a more time.

I'm very sad to hear that a Great Man has left this earth. He would always have a nice word or greeting for me when we saw a each other. I'm Robin's little sister Rochelle (Shelly), and I shall miss him terribly. May Walter rest easy now on his new journey.

Rest in well-deserved peace ,Walter.
