They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
Rest in peace, Walt.

My memories of Walter are of a young man, high spirited, full of life, and fiercely loyal to those he called, 'friend'. His joyful exuberance was dimmed by the passing of his much loved cousin, 'Pete'. They were practically inseparable, and Pete's passing cast a deep shadow upon Walter, and the people around him. I pray that as Walt joins his Heavenly Father, he finds solace in his loving arms. Once again, he is with his cousin, as they enjoy the true and lasting peace, that surpasses all earthly pain and sadness.
