One of the great police officers I had the pleasure to work with. Walt could handle any situation that he encountered. He always had your back. He was well liked by all. Walt may you rest in peace. To your family and friends my sincerest condolences.

My condolences to Walt´s family. I worked with Walt on the SPD. He was a fearless Great Cop to work with. You knew you were going to be OK when Walt was around. Now matter what the situation. He was firm but fair. He always kept his co-workers on our toes with his great sense of humor. Never forget, rest in peace Brother
