My condolences to the family , no one can prepare us for the grief we experience when we lose a loved one, at 1 Peter 5:7 we are encouraged to "throw all your anxiety on him, because he cares for you." Losing a loved one is difficult but with comfort we receive from God by relying on him, a person can gain "the peace of God that surpasses all understanding..."( Phillipians 4:6,7) I want you to know that although missed your loved one is not forgotten and God who is the life giver is eager to restore life to those who have fallen asleep in death and promises to do so by means of a ressurection. ( John 5:28,29)

Dear Kathleen and family, I am so sorry to hear about Walter. I always enjoyed running into him at the stores and chatting over the work he did on my computers. He was such a nice man and I am sure will be missed by all of your family. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this time. Sincerely, Barbara Dudley

My dear Kathleen and family: My deepest, sincere sympathy to you all. Walter was a very special man that I was fortunate to know. He helped me with my computer problems for years and I will never forget him. Kathleen, my fellow agent from Lavery Real Estate, is a great gal and I am sure her wonderful family will be at her side through this difficult time. Love and sympathy, et al., Betty

I want to express my condolences to Diane and Andy, who I met when they both worked in the Ad Services department at the Poughkeepsie Journal newspaper. I only met your father very briefly, when I was invited to come to the Pirate Canoe Club for casual relaxation and informal afternoons, specifically a year when your father was the Commodore. I was impressed with your father's calm and down to earth manner, and friendliness to me- even though it was such a small connection and minimal shared experience. Your father seemed to have had a full, productive life experience; helping others, creating new products and technology, and serving in that leadership capacity at the P.C.C. Diane and Andy- your influence of music, and sharing with me a variety and genre of music I had not experienced in my years before 1980, has had a lifelong effect, and overwhelming benefit to my musical tastes- Richie Cole, Sonny Rollins, Gil-Scott Heron...from Andy I learned about the group New Order, and how he made the color magazine cut out artwork "packaging" for the cassettes.....thank you both for influencing and changing my musical knowledge and enriching my experience of lyrics and instrumental sound.
