Walter was and still is my nephew. I did not spend much time around him but what time I was around him was good time. I believe the most time I was around him was when my son and daughter Andy and Cheryl and I went to Six Flags and he went with us. He will be missed but not forgotten. God bless you my sister Emily and your family. We love y’all.
Uncle Gator 🐊… Who knew this would be our last visit together? All my memories of you are special & I’ve always held a special place in my heart ♥️ especially, for a wonderful son who stuck by his mama! Hope you & Papa are having a laugh together. With Love, Your Niece, Morgen LaBrecque
Walter was my best friend for years. He made me laugh more than any one ever has. He will remain alive in my heart every day. I miss you, Babe. Until we meet again. I love you.
To my little brother Walter, better known as Gator. I want you to know I miss you constantly. I want you to know Larry and I are doing what your last wish to us was. We are taking care of Edna also known as mom. We miss your smile and your infectious joke telling and antics that everyone looked forward to. I will never ever forget you brother and will see you again. RIP Gator I love you. Thank you for taking care of mom all those years.
Walter you were one of my best friends in life. People that you can really count on don’t come into our lives very often and I’m so thankful that you did. We’ve had some great times and helped each other through some tough times as well. You were always there and I’m grateful. All of our lives changed forever when you went home to Heaven. I can see the Angels laughing at your constant humor and oh how I miss you. It doesn’t seem real but I take comfort in knowing you are in a better place and we will all be together again one day. Henry and I are taking care of Mom as we know that was your biggest concern. You were definitely one of a kind and we miss you terribly. Rest In Peace friend. I Love you! Larry
Walter was my best friend for over 30 years. We even had our own “language ” and numerous inside jokes only we understood. I can’t believe he’s gone from this world. I know.our spirits will cross paths again. Until they do i will miss him and carry him in my heart. I love ya babe.
