Dear Harding family, We are sad to hear of the loss of our next door neighbor. As he was "on the road" most of the time, we did not get to know him or vist much. It is evident that you were a wonderful person and will be greatly missed, and that hearts are broken around the country at the loss of this great man. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. Please let us know if you need anything. May he rest in peace!

I haven't seen you since 1976-you were a very fun date! We were young and silly. I remember you fondly--I didn't know you were ill, but you were a great guy--funny and full of life.
Blessings to you and your family.
You will be missed

God bless you Wally. Even though it has been a while, we shared a lot over the years, mainly the same birthday. It's a shock since it seems like yesterday that you were beating me up on the golf course and basketball court. You will always be remembered.

Wally
It was with extreme sadness that i learned of your illness & subsequent
passing. We moved some 'cotton'
throughout the years. Whatever the
gig may have been, NASCAR, Hank Jr., etc, you did not have to worry
about anything after the 'In' with you
& your people. You knew all was being done right when you left it with
Wally! We have lost one of the
'Old hands' in the Merch. Industry,
Hardworking,Honest, & Reliable, Never cocky. Enjoyed every 'gig' i
ever worked with you, God Bless your
family! Farewell, To a true Brother of the Road!!! MISSED BUT NOT FORGOTTEN!!!!!
