Not sure what to say?

This Thanksgiving will be bittersweet without having Walter in our conversations. He will be missed by all who knew him. Walter was more like a brother than brother-in-law, a man who you knew would give you the advice that was helpful when you asked but never did so without you asking. A man among men whom his family could be proud of.

Have very pleasant memories of Mr. Pitchford from way, way back in my childhood. He was out next door neighbor. Such a talented photographer. The Felton children cherish the pictures he took of our family during our childhood, and deeply appreciate the kindness he and his family showed our family. Rest in Peace Mr. Pitchford.

It was apparent to Amy's friends that her Dad had so much to live for that he kept fighting for so long. You must all be as special as she is. Peace to all of you.

My condolences to Walter and Elaine and the entire Pitchford family. I didn't know Walter Sr. But heard of him many times when Elaine would come into Office Max. Let your memories help you heal. You Steve in my prayers. Marie Chico (office Max)
