We always felt Walter was part of our family because he and our mother, Olga , spent many days going to polka festivals and dances at the Polish Clubs. Folks would comment on how well they danced as a couple. After our mother passed, we still thought of him and phoned him on his birthday. Those memories still linger in our mind.

Uncle Walter was an honorable man. The only thing shinier than his well polished shoes was his gentle and kind soul.
