I discovered just today that Walter passed away over 9 months ago and I am so sad to hear this news, and to not have had the opportunity to pay respects to the man and his family. We have handled "Moe's" insurance for over 20 years and it was a sincere pleasure to know him...he was a good man!! I'm not sure if at this point anyone will even see these words of condolence, but I/we are sending them to his family and friends. I will miss our annual visit and discussions...Rest In Peace, Walter.

I've known mo since I'm 11 or 12 years old when my brother worked for him I later worked for him from 87 to 94 as well at the ironworks. And I worked for him on and off over the years he will be missed by many as well as myself. I tried to visit him a few weeks back with my daughters one of which he is godfather to (kaylee). He was not at the shop that day and am sorry I didn't get to see him. I learned alot from him as a kid as well as his father herman.

Walter was the kindest most generous man that anyone could ever wish to meet. I spent many hours at Moe's shop, and shared some great times riding motorcycles , camping, and fishing with him. He was always ready to lend a hand to anyone who asked, and always did it with a smile. His wit was contagious, and he was always ready to share a prank or a joke. I will miss him.
