My heartfelt condolences to Walt, Sonja & the entire Vining family. I was so very sad to learn of Mr. Vining's passing. I have many happy memories of him from my teenage years and can still picture him standing in his driveway with a smile on his face. He was a wonderful person, someone who always made you laugh. May he rest in peace and your memories bring you comfort at this difficult time.

Barb, family and friends, Enza and I want to offer our condolences with the loss of Walter. Always larger then life Walter always filled a room regardless of how big. Family first, quick to laugh and always there to offer support Walter was a great man and will always be a great example for the rest of us. Sadly, the greater the man the harder to fill the loss. We all now have that responsibility. God bless him and all who's lives he touched.
