To my Uncle Walt & family,
I want you to know how sorry I am for the deep loss that you are having to go threw. I have read so many wonderful things about my aunt that I have never had the pleasure of getting to know, for this I feel so sad. This doesn't change the fact that we are family, and I do love you and pray for The Lord to comfort you.

Aunt Barbara you can rest knowing your life was a success you loved with your whole heart and were loved back..the reflection of who you were is evident within the love your children now express to all of us. Uncle Walt and You had what so few ever experience true love till the very end..but this is not the end for we will all be together again in glory. until then rest in peace as gods love and the angels that greeted you surround you. God grant peace to this family.

Aunt Barb I will always remember and love you. I will miss your phone calls and making fun of Barney. I will always carry the memory of you trying to make me eat peas when I was little. I will never look at peas the same way. I love you and miss you so much. You may be gone but will never be forgotten. You definitely earned your Angel Wings!

Mrs Jefferis,
Although I never got to meet you, besides the days where I was in a diaper, I feel as if I did just from all of the wonderful stories that not only Walt and Baylee have told me but even my grandmother. When you were sick I wanted to see Walt smile so I asked him to tell me some funny stories about you and now I can see why you and my grandmother were so close. People like you are hard to find these days and I'm extremely lucky to have your son and granddaughters in my and my daughter's life and I owe you a huge thank you for raising such an amazing son that I get to share my future with. Tell my pop-pop I said hi. Thank you.

Mommy words cant express how much I miss you. I miss our daily calls and I miss giving you kisses. I will never forget you ever. Your son, Walt Jr
