Not sure what to say?

Pa,
The wake is over and they have buried you deep. The flag that covered you, is now held close by Ma to her heart. Taps were played and sounded the sweetest I've ever heard it.
Pa,
I was not the stoic first son as I thought I'd be. When I knelt to say goodbye to you on Saturday morning, the heavy and uncontrolled sobs betrayed me. I at first tried to fight but soon learned that I was not, nor would I be in control this day.
Pa,
The memories have not ebbed in the...

In the just short of 4 yrs that I have known Water and his family, I have come to Love and respect both Pop and Mom, and the family they have created, and what a family they are! A wonderful reflection of just who Walter and Mary (Maureen) Sullivan are. Walter and Maureen welcomed me and my family with open arms and always made us feel at home, as if I had known them all my life, I could not thank them enough for the morals, respect, and love they have instilled in their son Steve. Steve is...

Walter my friend, you will truly be missed.

MAUREEN AND FAMILY,

WE WERE DEEPLY SADDEN TO HEAR OF YOUR LOSS OF WALTER. WALTER WAS AN EXTRAORDINARY MAN, AND WE FEEL BLESSED JUST TO HAVE KNOW HIM. HE WAS THE TYPE OF MAN WHO COULD MAKE YOUR DAY BETTER JUST BY BEING THERE. WE HAD SOME GREAT LAUGHES AT THE OFFICE, FROM HIS LACK OF TECHNOLIGY TO GETTING ALL THE GIRLS NAMES MIXED UP(TO MANY C AND K NAMES TO KEEP STRAIGHT, MUCH EASIER TO JUST YELL KRISTA AND WAIT FOR ONE OF US TO ANSWER HE USED TO SAY) YOU TRULY WILL BE MISSED BY...

Well Papa Smurf,

You essentially brought sexy back, if it wasn't the amazing silver hair you so expertly groomed, or the countless crisply pressed shirts/slack combos (thank you Nana), or the James Bond like swagger, you were a Man above men.

Your existence in this world, gave birth to an amazing 3-Ring circus of a family. A family that has seen its up and downs, but its core stable and solidified by you and Nana. Sometimes I thought of you like a wise ol’ man at a top of a...

To the Sullivan family,

Walter always had a smile on his face, a gleam in his eyes and a hug for you whenever he saw you. We will always remember that smile. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Hey papa you were such a staple in my life, I going to miss you so much. The thought of me not hearing that roaring laugh, or you saying to me "come here hammerhead"or not seeing you in your car watching me play baseball. Oh how things just do't seem fair sometime, you allways told me life sometimes is not fair,i guess this is just one of those things. I love you papa for being you and a stand up kinda guy. You tought me so much in my life time that I can pass on to my kids. i will miss you...
