Our prayers fly out to the Pankiewicz family on the loss of a superb police officer and a really great guy. Walt always seemed so relaxed and easy going until you discovered how intent he was and committed to the job. We were at Area 2 and 11th & State. I was beyond elated when he bought Carl's figuring I wouldn't have to wait in the long lines in the cold. He is really someone that is going to be missed.
