Dear Tina, Debbie, Renee and family, We are so sorry to learn of Walts passing. He was one of the most kind and gentle souls we have ever known. As Tom so graciously pointed out, Walt was always willing to share his knowledge and experiences as well as his tremendous passion for his family and activities. We were so very fortunate to have been neighbors for much of our lives growing up and the values and friendship Walt, and your entire family shred over these many years will never be forgotten.
