I just heard of Wally's passing. I have not seen Wally in many years, but I retain a vivid memory of him at the family Christmas Eve celebrations. He was a joyful attendee for years and years. I remember him from my earliest Christmases until I moved away in my late 30s. He was always the same-had a smile on his face and a good word for everyone. He found his bar stool and held court until late in the evening. My condolences to Cheryl, Kim and all his other family and friends.

So sorry to hear about the loss of your dad Walter. As a youngster when visiting Aunt Ann and Uncle Joe, he was always pleasant. He may not be here any longer but he won't be forgotten. Prayers and sincere condolences.
