So many hold fond memories of this special man. I feel everyone could be invited to express a eulogy at the funeral and each could present a lengthy and charming love story of how much Walt means to us. He was a keen, wise businessman who should be commended for his innovation, creativity, thrift and vision. Just as impressive, though, was his ability to connect with people. He was sincere and he made me feel like I was his own. He often told me stories of his children and his many grandchildren but he told me the stories like I was one of them. He graduated as a deer friend of the family to my uncle by marriage. Whenever, I called him to check in he always concluded the conversation with, "I love you, girl". We conclude our wonderful 100 year conversation with, "I love you Walt".
