We were fortunate to have known Wally during the past couple of years, and will miss his visits to Milton. When Nicole heard of Wally's passing, she said "he is so lucky to be in heaven with God, he gets to see what He looks like and he gets to be an angel looking down at all of us". God bless you all.

With love from the Mitchells.

We are so sorry to hear of Wallys passing. Wally was a great mentor to me and an inspiration in my daily work life. His creative imagination knew no boundries and was only limited by his desire to tackle many projects at once. As a friend he was there with me when all my chips were down and always had a kind word and a smile regardless of how his own day was going. He held himself accountable to live to a level of perfection that was achievable by none.. this was his strength ...as well as his weakness. Personalities like his are truly a bright spot in a sometimes dismal world. Wally will be greatly missed by many and I consider myself lucky to have had him as a friend for the short five years I knew him. May God keep your soul Wally ...and may you find happiness in a better world than this.
