Linda and family,
Dave and I were very saddened to hear of your loss. Both Dave and I have memories of Walt as a customer and as a fellow fireman. Dave has a fond memory of riding in the parade with Walt in Speedy. He will be missed.

Walt was a great inspiration to me even before I was fortunate enough to call him a colleague at WCBS radio. He taught me a great deal and I always loved his wonderful and sharp wit. My condolences to his family and friends.

I hate this. Walt got me to the North Pole when he took me along to Greenland to be trained for surviving on the ice if your C-130 skibird crashed.I still remember when we all spent the first night under a hastily built paratent just to cut the wind, so to speak, there was Walt sleeping outside on the ice in his sleeping bag as if he didn't have a care in the world. Even our trainers from Elmendorf were amazed. After that we took that 130 and hopped up to the Pole, a weather station at 86 north and one of our radar stations to catch Russian missiles coming over the Pole. Because I went on that craziness, the NSF and the Air Guard Walt worked with took me to the South Pole too.All because Walt suggested I freeze my ass off when we were at Art Athens' retirement party at Gracie Mansion. He took me on some of the best adventures of my life and I will always be grateful for his friendship and honored to have been his colleague.
