Dear Carmel and family, Our thoughts and memories are with you. Memories of Wally and his career in the RCAF will always be with me. I especially think of the trip in 1956, from Winnipeg to Nova Scotia with Tim, Debbie, Mom, Dad plus most of the family belongings in my Car. LOL Tim/Donna

Hi Aunt Carmel. Sorry for your loss. Wally was a great uncle. Bright and happy. Many years ago, he gave Matthew and me a tour of the Ottawa Aviation Museum, when we were up at your house visiting from Toronto. It was special tour because Wally knew the pilots who were on some of the planes being shown.. And he saw a plane from his squadron that he probably flew in!! He was a great guy and I will miss him. Rest in Peace Wally. Love David and Donna.
