Remembering Walter

On Sunday, August 15, 2004, we lost one of the few true "good" people that most only wish they could encounter at some time during their lives. No one has to tell US what Walter has meant to the people, and especially the children of the Town of Bellingham.
From his dedication and time, his loyalty and spirit, his love of children and their need for recognition, support and feelings of belonging, to his unselfish dedication to the community, very few people, if anyone I know could meet the challenges of raising such a large family in such a loving way, and still dedicate virtually every waking moment to not only his own children, but all children in the town.
