WALTER OECHSLE

We should all strive to be as quiet, kind and generous as Walter.

Hard to believe 5 years have passed since Walter left us. He was kind and generous, I only trained Walter for a short time in the winter of '15-16, it was truly enjoyable and something I looked forward to. I would visit the Delray home and we'd have a routine that explored and challenged his capabilities, all while monitoring his blood oxygen levels to insure his well being and function. We would speak of various topics, my favorite conversations centered around soccer on the world scene, but...

Wonderful man, sorry to hear of his passing, he will be missed. Heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to family and others whose lives he has touched.

I had the privilege to work for Mr. Oeschle. Words can't describe how much I admire him. Very kind, compassionate , intelligent. He made a big difference in my life. Grief can be hard , but our special memories help us cope. I miss you and love you❤. Juliana Costa

Walter greatly enhanced the prestige of the 1957
Class through his philanthropy and quite leadership. His continuing devotion to Lafayette was truly remarkable. A giant of a person.

Walter was as principled as he was kind. He had one of the most gracious personalities I have ever observed. I knew him as a devoted alumnus whose passions were diverse and his generosity was deep. As a member of the Lafayette BOT I remember him as more interested in doing the right thing than fixated on the prestige of office. He will be missed.
