WALTER BELAMIDE VINING SR

To the Vining Fam...

My heartfelt sympathy and condolences for the loss of your father, Walt. Although our friendships and family connection during the late 70´s/early 80´s didn´t transcend the challenge of distance and time, my time with `the Vining´s´ was special and has always held a place in my heart...especially your dad who impacted my life in a special way!

Walt was like a father figure to me during my `growing up´ years leading up to young adulthood...he welcomed me into his home and allowed me to hang out and enjoy some of the greatest times as a teenager. He was accepting, kind, humble and sweet! I remember him to be a strong family man in his own right...a hard worker who was resourceful, a man of great integrity who was always there for his family. He had a great sense of humor, was easy going, generous, genuine, and just down to earth cool! I will always remember him as a humble man with a huge heart and a great big smile, who was respected and loved by many!

Wishing you all much peace to bring comfort, strength and courage to take on the days ahead and loving memories to hold in your hearts forever. Walt was a great man...may his legacy live on through all of you!

Rest in paradise, Mr. Vining!

With much love (from LA) to the Vining family

I don't remember a time in my life where the Vinings weren't in it. Uncle Walt is special to me and he always looked after me at school and I was always so proud to say the security guard is my uncle. I regret letting time slip by and not visiting. Uncle rest in peace, heaven is lucky to have you. continue to watch over us and I will always have you in my heart.
