I have some really great memories of Uncle Walter and our family. All of us going to watch him race at Meyer Speedway on Saturday nights when I was a little girl. Watching him race and hanging out with my cousins in the pits at TX Motor Speedway. But probably the Best memories of Uncle Walter was getting to spend time with him at family gatherings. He was always so sweet and kind to me. And I will always remember watching how he and his brothers loved, cared and supported each other. We will all miss him so much ❤️🙏
I only knew Walter for a few short years and they were a blessing. He was and still is a wonderful God loving man. The first time I met him, he made me feel like family. My heart breaks, but I know he is with God. I'm rejoicing for him. May God bless all in this time.
My father was a man of God. There is some words that best describe him: "If I can help someone along the way". He was always helping his family, friends, or anyone that needed help. He was a hard worker who held
responsibility to the highest. He lived his life his way. He was a brave, and bold man. He held his life with great purpose. We will always love him
