I am so sorry to hear of Walter's passing. It seems I was just looking at photos of his 100 birthday party. He had quite a life and was always a good friend to our family. He is having a very good reunion with his family and many friends.

Dear Martha and Edward and all of Uncle Walter's Family and Friends
Our deepest sympathies are sent to you from afar today. Uncle Walter was a memorable character in our lives - we're remembering both his great sense of humor and responsibility to his family and the legion. We were so honored for the chance to see him a few weeks ago and to celebrate his 100th birthday with him. We hope a century of treasured memories comfort you for years to come.

Our mother Luella extends her deepest sympathy. Our father, former Commander, James "Bud" Finn admired and respected Walter and spoke of him often. Our Dad was proud to call Walter his friend. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family at this difficult time.

Uncle Walter's 90th B-Day.
Ed, Martha Jane and family,
Our condolences on Uncle Walter's passing. We have such fond memories of seeing him at the Oxbow where in his 80's was found hard at work pulling giant logs out of the river. He always had a kind word, and we especially enjoyed his stories about his service and dedication to the American Legion. At his 90th birthday celebration we all wished him Sto Lat (May you live to be 100). Well dear uncle, you made it. Now rest in peace.
