Kurt A. Wallat
Clinton-Kurt A. Wallat, 74, formerly of Lancaster, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his loving family on Wednesday, January 25, 2023.
He is survived by his beloved wife of 52 years, Judith (Sesia) Wallat; their children, Scott Wallat; Lisa Wallat & companion Daniel Spedding; Melissa Dempsey & husband Daniel, all of Clinton; Matthew Wallat & companion Christine FitzGerald of Estes Park, CO; and three grandchildren, Madeline, Porter, and Astrid.

Kurt was born in Clinton, son of the late Alwin & Helen (Nisula) Wallat.

Throughout his lifetime and retirement, he cherished tinkering with anything mechanical, notably his collection of rebuilt and restored farm tractors, and working on his fifth-generation farmhouse in Clinton. He was happiest in the company of his wife, children, grandchildren, and family.
