Sylvia, we are so sorry. Walt was one of the greatest men we ever knew and we will miss him dearly. I pray for you to have peace and I know Walt will be watching over us all. He will be forever in our hearts. We love you both.

Armando & Connie Rodriguez
Walt delivered our mail for many years here in Pearland. My father-in-law( also a
veteran) had many visits with Walt when he'd deliver his mail to him by hand and
with the excuse of getting a cookie out of the dad's cookie jar. On more than one occasion when dad had fallen Walt would let me know he helped my mom get him back up. We missed Walt after he retired from the Post Office. He was a really caring and compassionate man and will be missed. So sorry for your loss.
Mr. Walt was our beloved mail carrier for many years. During my time as a stay-at-home mom raising small children, his was the only adult conversation which I would share on many days. Somehow I think he knew that. He was always cheerful and neighborly and could tell one heck of a story. My kids looked forward to his daily deliveries and would race down the driveway to be the first to get the mail from Mr. Walt, whom they adored. He even knew the names of our dogs and would pitch them dog treats, no matter how obnoxious they were for barking at him every day. Mr. Walt will be greatly missed, but we will always remember his warmth, kindness, and gentle spirit. My sincere condolences to his family and friends.
Walt, was a dear friend for many years. I will never forget his upbeat spirit and contagious laugh. It didn't matter how long it had been since you had seen him, he was always the same. The love he had for Sylvia, children and grandchildren is legacy of love. Thank you Walt for all the years of friendship and happily sharing Vonna with our family. You were dearly loved by all who knew you. May God give peace to all who are heavy hearted. See you again on the other side my friend.
Praying you will feel God's loving support and peace during this sad time. Sorry we are not able to come to you, but mother is unable to travel and its take me and Steve both to tend to her. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Mother will call Aunt Sylvia within the next couple of days to talk with her. Love you ALL.
So sorry for your loss
Sending lots of prayers to Sylvia and the rest of the family. Walt and his contagious smile will be greatly missed, but all the loving memories remain and he lives forever in our hearts. We love you Sylvia and are here for you.
My wife Sophie and I will miss you Walter, prayers to you and your family. God Bless you.
I will surely miss his smiling face and his sense of humor!
He has gone on to a great place, I am sure. I am here for you!
