I was the guitarist behind Walter for many years in the Bill Bolen band. We worked together almost every week. His vocals were the highlight of our contribution to the event. Everyone loved his voice. Pitch perfect and dynamic. I miss you Walter every day. Ken Haywood

God cares for the brokenhearted; Psalm 34:18 assures us that he is close to them. Psalm 147:3 says: "He heals the brokenhearted; He binds up their wounds." God strengthens us by giving us "the power beyond what is normal" to make it through each passing day. Nahum 1:7; God is "a stronghold in the day of distress. He is mindful of ["takes care of"] those seeking refuge in him." Please accept my sincere condolences. Always remember God loves you and he cares for you!

We were shocked to hear of Walt's passing. So many wonderful memories of his fabulous singing with my band. Everyone loved his amazing voice and entertaining personality. He was such a special friend for over 25 years. The Iceman was a rock for us in so many ways and will be missed. The heavenly choir has a magnificent new member!
