Walter H. Pirog

Offering our sincere condolences. May the God of love comfort your heart and make you firm in your time of grief. 2 Thessalonians 2:16,17.

To my long time friend. Thank you so much for teaching me about the PT BOATS of WWII. Coming to your home and calling you was something I will not forget. Having you at some of my PT BOAT EXHIBITS was a joy. Although we spoke very little while you were at Holyoke Soldiers Home, I called all the time to check on you. I know that soon you will once again step onto PT-308 with those crewmen that went before you, bow high riding the clouds with God, only this time on a peaceful mission. God Bless...

To Walter, Ann, Kathy, Terry and your whole family. I think I first met your Dad in 1973 when Walter and I were both around 20 and I was picking Walter up to probably go to the Kennedy American Legion post for a few beers. Your dad was friendly and good humored but quiet in a sort of nice way that I liked, because my own father had few of those qualities. When Walter told me later that your dad had served aboard a PT Boat in World War II, I was in awe. One of my all-time favorite 1940's...

Thank you for your service, r.i.p., and condolences to the family

To Ann, Kathy, Theresa and Walter,,, I am so sorry for your loss. Your Dad always made me laugh when I was at your house. He was like my second dad.. My deepest sympathy for the whole family and to all the Grandchildren. Love you all,,, . Sending my prayers your way. Patty Bielanski Fontaine/Chicopee
