I'm sadden to hear about the passing of Walt Allspach. I worked with Walt at AT&T Long Lines in Bedminster, NJ for two summers as a summertime helper through IBEW Local 581. He was always kind and helpful to me. I had my first car back then, a 1957 Chevy. Walt gave me an original steel rim that belong to a '57 Chevy that he had laying around. I believe that I still have it somewhere. I will not forget you Walt. I'm sorry that I found out about this too late to attend your wake. My condolences to his family.
