My condolences to the Purcell family. Walt and his bar reminded me of the TV show Cheers, a place where everybody knew your name. We spent many weekend nights (heck even week nights) together. You will be missed.

My sincere condolences to Walt's family. The first time I met Walt was at his bar on Veteran's Highway. He made a point to introduce himself to me, and insisted on buying my friends and I a drink. I still remember him wearing a Hawaiian shirt, even in the winter, and being the life of the party! Walt was a true New Orleanian! Chris Trunk

Dear Frater,
Your passing has had an affect on me as much as your support and friendship in TKE. You will be missed but you will also be remembered. My prayers go out to the family.
