Condolences to the family. Walt was always quick to laugh – he was a good man – we will miss him.
Goodbye old friend! Walt was a classmate at Notre Dame. ’72. My deepest sympathies to family and friends.
Walter was a really great guy. I loved getting to know him while on strike, taking the Yale shuttle together and at 344 Winchester Avenue. Walt enjoyed life and I will miss him very much as he was a really great guy.
Walt was a great guy
