Our sympathy, we have so many wonderful memories and the dearest friendship brought together because of antique cars. We are so very glad we had the visit we did when all of you girls were there, Walt had his laugh and we got to remember "the good 'ole days". God Bless and give Dorothy a hug.

Lots of memories of Walt and my dad. Especially the races at Caruthersville and Wentzville for the bicentennial celebration. I bought his press and sand blasting cabinet at the auction and I think of him every time I use them. Rest in peace.

What can I say about Walt, he was like a second grandpa growing up from the time I was 6 weeks old to walking to Dorothy and Walters house in middle school, spending summers there and after school, Waiting for him to come home for lunch (which Dorothy and I normally had fish sandwiches or rice a roni) poor guy how I always got my way I'm not sure. After lunch he would take a nap in his chair, from there I would go under the bathroom sink and get out Dorothy's hair rollers and do Walters hair while he slept. I was always "little squirt" to him. He was such a big part of my childhood that will always hold a place in my heart. Will be missed always.

Dorothy,
Walt was "Mr. Model A" to me and many others. I will remember him fondly each and every time I start up my "A".
Please accept our sympathy.
