Not sure what to say?

Dear Don and Zisette Family,
My sympathies to your whole family. Sounds like a wonderful family man...

We would like to share our deepest sympathies with the Zisette family. Although I only met Walt a few times, it was immediately apparent he was a special man. Knowing Matt and his family well, it's clear to see that Walt's character lives on. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Thank YOU for your service and for keeping our Country free. Wish we had more individuals who loved and cared enough for our Country that they would serve to keep our FREEDOM!!!

He was always such a sweet soul and we know he will be missed terribly. Love to all!

I would like to express my sincere sympathy to June and the family. The family boys were playmates in the 60's-70's. And Walt was a big kid from what I remember. We had epic hoops games, tennis, nerf football, wiffle-ball, and kick the can battles, that serve as wonderful memories for me personally. Riding to places sitting backwards in the back of their station wagon, and Walt's MG also come to mind. Wonderful car. Snow be damned, I'm going to work. And up the hill he would go. God bless...

Would like to express my sympathies to the entire Zisette family. A kid could have no finer playmates then their family was to us in the 60's-70's. Not enough space or time to tell all the stories. Too many games of hoops, tennis, wiffle-ball, nerf football, and kick-the-can to mention. Sitting backwards in the back of their wagon, and that MG that Walt breathed life in to every morning. Snow be damned, I'm getting to work. God bless him. A great time in all our lives for sure. Molly has been...

That was very sad news when we heard of Walt's passing, what a solid family man he was.
We were always impressed with the strength of Walt and June as they raised their 4 kids, Wally, Don, Mary and Matt. What a wonderful family.
We didnt realize it, but my dad was also an Air Force Captain during the Korean War.
We send our best wishes to all of you in this tough time.

Our thoughts are with June, Wally, Mary, Don and Matthew during this difficult time. How I will always remember that voice of wisdom and the many things he knew about. May his memory always bring a smile and warm your heart.

God bless the Zisette family. It was pleasure to work for and with Walt. Walt was a real gentleman.
