Walter, we often remember you and Colleen, and the wonderful friendship we shared. We'll always remember the weeks we spent together climbing Diamond Head on Oahu and hiking to the fire tower at Lake Tahoe, and the years teaching seminary. Love you always, Dick and Judy Stoeltzing 2-9-24

I think of Walt and Colleen every time I drive down Linda, which was the way to their Carmichael home. They are alive and beautiful in my memory. Shirley Griffin

Walt, thank you for all the WUNDER-FILLED years Dick & I have had knowing you and Colleen. You have blessed our lives by being you. Knowing that you and Colleen are together again -forever, brings us joy. God Bless you, dear Friend.

Our family has strong memories of Walt, Colleen and their family and the many happy times we shared. Walt worked with Bob in the bishpric; Colleen and I worked together in Church callings and school PTA. We love the Wunderlich family and share your sadness at this separation from your parents. We will remember you in our hearts forever.

I will always be grateful for the incredible service he and Colleen gave as mission presidents when I was a missionary in Berlin Germany and for Walt sealing my husband and I 17 years ago. His example continues to inspire me. We love you President!!
