Walter enjoyed living in Kewaunee, he liked the outdoors with the annual hunting and fishing trips. However, he never brought a gun or fishing pole! He enjoyed following the local and Wisconsin sports teams. His favorite pastime was visiting friends and acquaintances in the local establishments. He was a fun loving guy, who enjoyed the people who made him laugh & he was pretty good at returning the favor. Never a dull moment with him around & that’s why people loved him!

Walter was a good friend and a kind man. He will be missed by his many friends and family.
