We are so sorry for your loss. When I think of Wally, I remember the early days of "Soup Group" and how you and Wally knocked down the wall between your kitchen and dining room so you could buy a table large enough to accommodate the whole group at once. Wally was such a treasure. When Jack Stevens requested ice cream to go along with the pie or other dessert, Wally was always happy to oblige! What a guy!
We will miss him!!

Ann and Family,
We are so sorry for your loss.
What a couple you two were You even tore down the kitchen/dining room wall to make room for a large table so everyone in our beloved "Soup Group" could sit around the table. I remember that when Jack Stevens asked for ice cream to top the pie or other dessert, Wally was always willing to comply!
We will miss this incredible guy!

Dear Ann and family,
I feel so sorry knowing about the passing of Wally. I'm going to miss the fun we had playing golf together. Wally's humor on the courses we played was contagious and made being outside very enjoyable. His love of God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit was also uplifting because I also have that love. He was such a very good friend. I shall miss those experiences with both you, Ann, and Wally. His love for you and family was extremely evident a all times.
He will be deeply missed! My condolences to you and your whole family.
