My sincere condolences to the family. Death of a love one is so painful. The Bible tells us about the hope for all who die . John 5:28,29. The Resurrection! You have the hope of being reunited with your love one again ! On Earth! I pray this Bible Truth brings you some peace and comfort during this difficult time.

I met Walt on a pipeline job in Montana. He was gracious enough to join us on stage with his harmonica in Gillette, Wyoming one evening. . We kept in touch over the years. The guy had a great big heart! I will never forget him. R.I.P. Walt.
