Dear Blanche
I am so sorry to hear that Wally has passed. We hadn’t seen him at the shop for awhile but had no idea he was sick.
I will miss the teasing and banter that ensued when Walter came in to the shop. I am so sorry for your loss, Blanche.
He will be missed.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to all your family on the loss of Wally. Wally was a very special person and we considered him family as we shared many special times in Kitimat and other special occasions over the years. He will be missed by us all but he has made our lives richer. We will never forget his generosity and love.
Fred, Bev and family.
Sorry to hear of Wally’s passing. His wit and wisdom will be missed by all that knew him.
